I can't believe these two good actors would have ever agreed to make this movie. Turned it off after 20 minutes, it was so bad. Shooting off a baby's umbilical cord? Seriously? What a joke.

This movie was so funny, some scenes were just ridiculous, but still entertaining!

Have you ever seen a pictograph - where a series of still pictures are put together like on the back of playing cards? Then as you flip through the pictures there is motion? This movie was like that. The dialogue was sophomoric. One got the feeling there was only enough budget to purchase ammo, but not enough to do the scenes over correctly. Save yourself some time and fast forward this movie so you can see the action and some of the eye-candy. Without the dialogue, you won't miss much.

This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. If you don't like it in the first 10 minutes turn it off it doesn't get any better. Don't waste your time.

The movie is so bizarre and off kilter that I'm still, nearly a week after having watched it, unsure whether I liked it. It was well rendered all the way through from writing to acting to direction to production, just so strange that I'm still not sure what to think... Sorta like Last Action Hero, only very mature (gore, sex) and hopped up on LSD and grit. Love the cast. Clive Owen is at the top of my list and rising (it's tough to do, but he manages it) and Paul Giamatti makes everything funny - no matter how awkward or macabre. Definitely a must for anyone who loves "different". Also recommended for everyone who loves pitch black comedies / spoofs mixed with a healthy dose of (similarly odd and intentionally overplayed) action. Best comparison I can make, though pale, would be Kill Bill meets Payback.

This movie is awesome! Fast and action packed. The gun scenes are insane!! The carrots are a great touch! I actually really liked the acting despite some of the reviewers. The movie isn't going to win any awards or be critically acclaimed, but it knows what it is and is good at it! Trust me, pick it up!

I started but could not go beyond the first third of the movie. It was not my kind of movie and I, therefore, could not finish viewing. It was, in my opinion, a silly gangster movie with humor. ...

I started but could not go beyond the first third of the movie. It was not my kind of movie and I, therefore, could not finish viewing. It was, in my opinion, a silly gangster movie with humor. That's not wrong, its just did not get my attention. Its not my mix and my mix is not for everyone but works for me.
