The Guardian
Description
Ben Randall is a smart and talented person who is a talented Coast Guard rescuer. He will be assigned the training task of being a trainer at the UCLA Training Facility after the death of his entire crew, and his wife wants a divorce. While doing the job, he will discover that a man named Jake has great potential but his past seems troubled and always escapes. Ben tries to get closer to Jake's lessons to change his idea of life and love and maybe make him someone else, besides being a teacher or coach.

Will definitely rescue some moviegoers from the post-summer doldrums, but someone should have told Davis that there's going to be casualities if he leaves audiences in the water that long.

The Guardian does the job required: nothing more, nothing less, and nothing fancy.

The Guardian isn't as boring as Annapolis and SWAT, but it's still a feature-length training montage about kids learning the importance of taking it to the limit.

Little about The Guardian will surprise anyone from one scene to the next, though the ride is hardly unpleasant and the story is generous in scope.

There's nothing particularly wrong with it, it's just very tedious. Originality doesn't seem to be important and maybe it doesn't have to be as The Guardian is dealing with something true but what that something is the filmmakers seem to know.

Kutcher and Costner have a kind of visual chemistry that's just as elusive as the other kind. And the connection and contrast between them remind us that Hollywood isn't as forgiving of older male actors as we like to think.

There is a breadth of quality about the acting, including a fine performance from Sela Ward as Ben's estranged wife - making a lot more of her role than her meagre scripting suggests.

The Guardian has the feel of a Sunday feature in a newspaper more than a drama.
September 16, 2007
Overly bloated action drama that is predictable and drawn out.

Kutcher may soon be ready to anchor a Hollywood sea voyage. But for now, he's still a touch out of his depth.

Costner is suitably Costneresque -- that is, low-key, stoic, and capable of a wry turn here or there.
