What The Critics Said:
Empire Mark Dinning
Essential stuff, even by the big man’s considerable standards.
Chicago Reader J.R. Jones
Sitting in the theater, you're liable to buy all this simply for the pleasure of watching Caine work. Like Eastwood and other actors of his vintage, Caine brings to the project not only his own formidable skills but more than half a century of movie history.
Boxoffice Magazine Wade Major
Not to be overlooked are the film’s wealth of fine supporting performances and technical contributions—the always wonderful Emily Mortimer, Martin Ruhe’s extraordinary cinematography and Kave Quinn’s incisive production design each playing a part in what must be considered one of the very best films of the first half of 2010.
ReelViews James Berardinelli
My expectation is that Harry Brown will find its strongest adherents among those who remember Caine in The Ipcress File and Get Carter and are fascinated to explore his take on how that sort of character might have aged.
Movieline Stephanie Zacharek
Those of us who love Michael Caine have to recognize that his capacity for coldness is part of what makes him great. And in that respect, what he does in Harry Brown is something of a bookend to his extraordinary, and extraordinarily chilly, turn in Mike Hodges’ cold-blooded 1971 Get Carter.
USA Today Claudia Puig
This portrait of the soldier as an old man is deeply moving.
Miami Herald Rene Rodriguez
A mean and exceedingly well-made little B-picture, but the questions it raises are far too complex to answer with a simple gunshot.
Orlando Sentinel Roger Moore
Caine is magnificent. This is not some laughable Stallone-boxing-at-60 exercise in vanity. He’s an old man playing an old man, but one who lived through experiences that both scarred him for life and prepared him for his final test.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch Calvin Wilson
A film that's as much a character study as it is a crime drama. At the heart of it is Caine's hauntingly memorable performance.
