I saw "The Guard" today, which I enjoyed well enough, but which was marketed as a kind of comedy, but which was really more of a cop buddy movie. Except that the leads aren't really buddies so much -- they come to respect each other, but there wasn't proper chemistry or characterization to make it fully gel. Similarly, the villains were underdeveloped. The movie ate up too much time following the lead, to the detriment of the other characters. The Irish setting was nice enough, but I think they could have worked the script a few more times, to sharpen the story better.
Sleepy. Need sleep!!!
