Great movie. Has unbelievable action and acting. It's like watching a Jackie Chan movie, but this is good.

I rented this movie fully expecting some mindless high-energy gun-kata, and this movie didn't disappoint...right up until the TRUE point behind this movie slimed it's way out of the shadows to insult what little intelligence the movie did have. In spite of what are some highly entertaining (and impossible action sequences that would put a blush on Jackie Chan), the sysnopsis of this movie is best described thusly: Gun-Makers = Evil Greedy Murderous B@st@rds, Gun-Owners = Pu$$ies With Guns. The true insult to the injury of this propoganda is their lame attempt to paint a double-crossing anti-gun Democrat politician (who wants to 'regain honor' in death and save America from itself by becoming the impetus to rescind the Second Amendment) as the Obi-Wan Kenobi to the Darth Vader of gun violence/ownership. Message to Hollywood: Prostitutes shouldn't preach, stick to what you know.

Not a total waste of time, but the effects and dialogue are a little too cheesy for my taste. I just kept expecting Elmer Fudd to come blow that carrot wielding Bugs Bunny's head off. If you want to see some real action with some very fake effects, go rent it. It's just not worth buying in my opinion.

I know nobody's expecting an action flick like this to retain complete reality but this is just outrageous. The biggest surprise was that there were actually deleted scenes that didn't make the movie. Not to mention Paul Giamatti is just a creep and doesn't fit a hit man's profile very well at all.

Jonathan M. B.

Run far away from this movie! Again I was caught looking at a great cast thinking that the movie must be at least halfway decent. This is quite possibly the worst action movie that I have ever seen.

One of the worst that I've seen in many, many years. DO NOT waste your time with this movie.
