Read More This movie is outrageously superb in it's casting. From start to finish not one of these people bad mouthing this movie can say they turned from the screen. All I can say is - If you like gratuitous violence, sex, action, blood, shooting, and just out and out ass kicking this is your movie. A+ Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

The scenes were very over the top. My favorite part is that Clive Owens never gets hit by a bullet until the very end. If 90 minutes of action and outlandish stunts and scenes is what you want....rent it! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Especially the ones who didn't even watch all of it, their opinion isn't worth crap . They don't realize this movie was supposed to be over the top and silly. The gun fights were silly and unbelievable, that was part of the fun. This is a very entertaining movie. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

I watched it with a bunch of friends and we all laughed at most of it. Some of the most ridiculous scenes I have ever seen! What makes things worse is that the writer/director really thought his ideas were good. It's worth watching to see some very immaginitive ideas, but don't expect a good plot or a good script...

Read More This movie is so cheesy it is no wonder I never heard of it. The skydiving scene with everyone shooting one another with dead on accuracy is so laughably ridiculous that it is entertaining. I found the movie to be pretty cool though. Clive Owen is such a cutie and he does a great job. Skip it or watch it. Either way you won't be missing out. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?

Read More I had high hopes going into this. Clive Owen was fantastic in Children of Men and to see Paul Giamatti in a totally different role (I just saw Fred Claus)... how could you go wrong? Plenty of over the top gunplay (think Die Hard x10), unfunny one-liners, and your typical conspiracy plot makes this film strictly c-grade with b-grade production values. I won't spoil the conspiracy plot that's already been done half a dozen times, but I will tell you Monica Bellucci doesn't get nekkid.
What a waste of acting talent. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||
