The movie is well-acted, well-written, and really funny. So much so that the whole international drug trafficking plot sometimes gets forgotten (for all the right reasons). Do go see this film!
Score: 9/10

#165 - The Guard (2011)
Definitely one of my favorites of the festival. The Guard is an Irish-set drama focusing on local lawman Brendan Gleeson and American FBI agent Don Cheadle as they try to track down a shipment of cocaine that is suspected to land in Ireland. Gleeson's very much a do-it-my-own-way kind of enforcement officer, which doesn't tend to gel with Cheadle and some of the other officers. Of course, we the audience love him, his offbeat sense of humor, and his ways of doing things. All this is acted supremely well by the terrific Mad-Eye Moody Brendan Gleeson.
