Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSir Michael Caine saw a lot of himself in the character of Harry Brown, they're both combat veterans (Harry is a Marine who served in Northern Ireland, Caine served in the British Army during the Korean war), and Caine lived in the same area that Brown does. It was things like these that drew him to this movie.
- GoofsAt the canal, D.I. Frampton says to D.S. Hickock that she smelled cordite on Harry Brown's coat, implying him having fired a gun. Cordite is obsolete: it's no longer produced. This is a forgivable mistake though, because although cordite production ended in the 1960s, the term is still used generically in the UK for gun powders.
- Quotes
Frampton: It's not Northern Ireland Harry.
Harry Brown: No it's not. Those people were fighting for something; for a cause. To them out there, this is just entertainment.

Featured review
Despite Emily Mortimer's ever vapid presence, in no way suited to be convincing as a cop. Michael Caine is masterful as always, film gives him an opportunity to show off his incredible range credibly, from fragile pathos and sorrow to hard unrelenting man in the field you do not want to cross. It's hard to take any satisfaction though in the hunting down and brutalising of miserable wretches at the bottom of the have not pile. Well directed scripted and edited. Love seeing Michael Caine always, he's so damned good nuance by nuance it's spooky.
