Anything with Clive Owen in is worth watching my book, even including some of the stinkers he's been invovled with.

I just saw this tonight. Very entertaining, don't expect much more. Its an incredibly intense, fake, crude movie that is worth seeing but don't expect a masterpiece.

It is. The title says it all.

Mairuzu
Great film, go see it

Darth Vicious
Pretty fun movie. The chase scene with the Van and the red BMW is pretty sweet.

FistOfThe North
Yea. I saw it yesterday. I liked it. In a small way it kinda reminded of "Sin City" and Kill Bill" But I liked another shoot 'em up I saw that I thought was better called "Death Sentence" which i saw that same day.

Discos
Title just screams LOOK AT THIS BADASS MOVIE.

Soon as I saw the advert I said to myself "Jason Statham must be in this", but alas he aint. Reminds of stuff along the lines of Crank and The Transporter.

I don't think I will make a point to see it in the cinema. Might see it in the off chance I want to go to the cinema and its the only thing on.

My girlfriend was in hysterics when the advert came on because I predicted the end of the slogan for the advert
"Its not the size of your gun...."

and I cleverly remarked.. "its how you use it"

Discos

This movie was made for cinema surround sound quality dude,

I told myself, I'd see this movie. I missed it last weekend and said "Alright, you're going to see it this weekend!" Today comes. I look in the paper to find something different. Shoot Em Up is all of a sudden NOT playing in any of my county's 5+ theaters! "Perhaps it got terrible reviews", I think. I look it up. Mixed reviews. There have been worse films made this season that are still out. "Perhaps it did terrible at the box office..." $5 mil on the first weekend isn't super, but it's definately no grounds to pull a film from theaters prematurely. What gives?!

Tptmanno1
Definitely worth the watch in the cinema.
Great entertaining film.
It didn't take itself seriously, and took the idea of doing completely insane stunts and other gun-based ridiculousness and exploited them to a level where it was completely unbelievable and compical. But at that point, it really didn't need to bea serious movie. I loved all the crazy gun fights, all the cheesy one-lines, and everything that made it such a bad-ass shooter.
Go see it. With friends, laugh, and have a good time. Its what its made for.

super pr*xy

Rogue Jedi

Monica Bellucci is so gorgeous. I remember her in Malena.

darthmaul1
The movie was alot of fun, just totally ridiculous action, if you go see it expecting to see a serious action flick then you will be disapointed, everything is laughable even the gun fights.

Yeah, i found myself laughing outloud when he rigged up the guns in the warehouse with rope. laughing

This movie was mediocre; nothing special.

As far as mindless action movies, there are many more I like better.

Bill.Cosby
Amazing movie the guy merks his enemys. The hydro grow up with carrots was jokes.

Wolfie
Amazing flick. Literally non-stop action. I've shown a few scenes to people and they were very eager to rent the movie for themselves. They raved about it later.

larrybo
I like the sound of a self-aware non-stop action movie, the poster campaign made it look extremely slick, gonna have to rent this...

Syren
Ridiculous action movie, lost interest halfway through erm

I do like Clive Owen though. Definitely lacked the magic of Sin City.

dadudemon
This movie was definately a good "Shoot 'em Up" flick.

The gun fights were so ridiculously stupid that it pissed me off. I am not a 7 year child...that shit doesn't work on me.

At least in Equilibrium, they had an excuse for why he never got shot by those massive amounts of bullets.



I thought the movie had a great back story.

I gave it a 5.5.

Clive Owen. He lacked charisma in comparison to his performance in Sin City. Sorry, crappy wording embarrasment

I disliked this movie. The acting looked forced, the plot was rubbish and there were too many carrots in the movie.
