      People like Harry Brown weren't always pensioners. As with Harry you don't know what they did in their younger days so it always pays to be nice to them, and listen when they have something to say. ;-) :-)

      @James Furey I think you miss my point. Few of us know what another person has done in their lives. We don't know what skills they have acquired, as Harry Brown demonstrates.
      I agree that everyone is worthy of respect - at least until they prove otherwise. The difference between a plumber and a soldier is that death doesn't normally feature in a plumber's job spec. I also agree that not all soldiers are beyond reproach. Some of them are completely beyond the pale.

Your headmaster may have received the MC or GC - and you wouldn’t know. They had experienced horrors and had to raise gun, knife or bayonet (and use them). They returned frequently wanting to live quietly and modestly.

      Then goes on to enact justice on the armed crooks in his neighborhood.

    Okay, I might have gone overboard. But the point stands. British films have always been understated and subtle. Not all about the flash and bang.
    For me, this film hit all the perfect notes. I felt for the character so badly. The villains were absolutely vile but to some extent, we have a window into understanding why the main antagonist ended up the way he did.
    Finally, the satisfying pay off when Harry Brown finally gets justice for what was done to his best friend.

    There's a wide breadth of emotion in this monologue, and in the lands of a lesser actor it could run the risk of being boring or comedic, but Caine absolutely sells it, from the coldness of "You failed to maintain your weapon," to the slow poignancy and heartbreak of "I've never told that story to anyone" (without which the war story might seem almost dull, despite how horrifying it is), to the almost gentle and grandfatherly "You should have called an ambulance for the girl." It packs Harry's ruthlessness, his loneliness, and his care all in a short few minutes.
