Summary

An unorthodox, foul-mouthed Irish police sergeant in rural Connemara is paired with a straight-laced FBI agent investigating an international drug-smuggling ring operating along the west coast of Ireland. As the local force is compromised and the smugglers close in, the cynical guard proves more capable and principled than anyone expects.

Released in 2011, The Guard is a comedy, crime and thriller film. Its comedy subtype is Dark Comedy.

159 IMDb reviewers are calibrated for this title, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 161 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 13,058 2010s films, not against the whole corpus. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 1,672 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately.
