ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Michael Caine takes justice into his own hands in Harry Brown (2009), a gritty British crime thriller about an elderly ex-Marine seeking revenge after his best friend's murder. This week on Off the Shelf with Phil and Dave, the guys revisit Daniel Barber's vigilante drama, also starring Emily Mortimer. From London's violent streets and disturbing characters to questions of morality, revenge, and whether justice justifies murder, there's plenty to debate. Dave once had high hopes for this film, but does it hold up years later? Join Phil and Dave for laughs, disagreements, and an honest look at this dark British revenge thriller.
