Shoot 'Em Up

The title promises things being shot up, and suffice it to say that this movie more than delivers on that promise.

It's a good movie except when the hero gets his finger nails pulled out.

"Shoot 'Em Up" plays out like a live action Looney Tunes directed by Quentin Tarantino. It has just enough plot to propel the action but not enough to bog things down with a lot of exposition. Clive Owen strikes just the right tone as a weary gunslinger drawn into the schemes of villian Paul Giamatti. The action sequences (which constitute the entirety of the film) are brilliantly choreographed and executed. If that's not enough, the film is laugh-out-loud funny.

Easily one of the best comic action films I've seen. Amazing.

Absolutely relentless and unbelievable, just the way i like action films. This movie is a pervasive series of fun to watch shoot outs, and clever one liners. I love these kind of movies

Best thing about this movie, it takes literally no time for the action to start. I hate action flicks that take half the movie until anything entertaining happens and this movie is NOT one of them. Clive Owen is sarcastically hilarious and does a great job in his role. For those that say there is no plot, well, maybe not one we're "used to" but I think it's pretty freegen cool and Monica Bellucci is gorgeous. Just think if the movie "Max Payne" (which the whole series leading up to the newest third installment), was like this. It would have been amazing! Not only would the whole synopsys of what should have been "Max Payne" been better but it would have been VERY much more like the games. Anyways, back to Shoot Em Up. This was wildly entertaining, clever and pretty much had everything that makes a great action flick. Did I mention Monica Bellucci is gorgeous? Watch this movie if you're looking for pure noctane, adrenaline inducing action. Awesome action flick. Peace

This movie is an over-the-top mix of one-liners and action violence. I've never been quite sure whether it's purposely made this way or whether it is simply making fun of itself. Either way, it is all fun, no deep thought, and no regrets. Plus you'll have that much more fun when you eat jumbo carrots.

To those who five starred this garbage...WHAT? Are you kidding me? Your joking right? No movie lover that has a brain that actually thinks thoughts would rate this rubbish higher than 1 star. Perhaps the five stars were for another movie OR the poor people were confused by the inane shooting, vulgar scenes and utter nastiness of this insult to movies. Really...five stars? What low standards people have!

This has to be one of my absolute favorite action movies! It is a regular action movie + guns and it just equals bloody, gory happiness. If you haven't seen it don't expect to be moved to tears or enthralled by the stunning character or plot development, be ready for a ton of one liners and enough canon fodder to clear out a medieval town. This is such a fantastic mindless movie!

Most incredible action movie ever. The name is Shoot 'em Up. The title explains everything! Its great!! Best action movie experience you could EVER have!!!!!!
