Draco-REX Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Another quick movie review from yours truly. Some didn't agree with my last one, but I don't care. If I did, I wouldn't be on CR now would I? So this movie. It's everything an action movie should be. Light on plot, heavy on the guns. It's like the writer said "What if we do THIS?" and anyone who said "No, that's over the top" was immediately fired.... from a canon... into orbit... It's so over the top it's just a great ride from beginning to end. Soundtrack rocks too. And you'll NEVER look at a carrot the same way again.

baron_ Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 g'damn This movie is horrible - And I've had this discussion on 3 different forums. My roommates and I couldn't even make it through it. It's stupid as hell. How many people does he kill with a carrot? A fight scene while he's carrying a baby? Maybe I like an ounce of realism in my action movies: Rambo, for example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimTaylor751647545500 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Paul Giamatti disturbed the hell out of me with the look on his face when he was rubbing the dead chick's boobie. 7/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Maybe I like an ounce of realism in my action movies: Rambo, for example Ouce, or gram? I did use the phrase "over the top" twice. If you have trouble suspending your disbelief, then this movie definately not for you. I view movies as entertainment. If I see a movie and I'm entertained, then it's an ok movie. If it surprises me, then it's a good movie. It seems like people go to the movies nowadays expecting a life-chaning experience, or Mona-Lisa in motion. Granted, there are movies out there that will make you question your beliefs, or see the world in a new way. But this movie isn't one of them. Shoot 'Em Up is pure visceral Entertainment. And I enjoyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hal Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 It kept me entertained. Lots of shooting, littler humor, it was fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lustalbert Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Some of the gun play was just painfull to watch from a technical standpoint, but I still enjoyed it. I really liked where the Mercedes driver got creamed for not using a turn signal. I wish I could do that and get away with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ansonivan Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 The movie was intended as an over the top spoof and it achieved that on a grand scale, I liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
