Review of Guns Akimbo (2020) by Rcavey92212 — 26 May 2020

On paper I should absolutely love this movie. My new favorite actress stars in it Samara Weaving of Ready or not along with the oddly charming Daniel Radcliffe of Harry Potter. The trailer showcases anime style violence, a weird video gamish plot and R RATING for extreme violence and gore. But somehow for the first 2/3 it just doesn't gel together. The setup concerns a loser type young man who does alot of hate blogging and ends up pissing off the creators of an online running man type gameshow. He awakes from being assaulted with two guns fused to his hands and the surviving gamer (Weaving) on the hunt for him. The movie is action packed but for the first half it doesn't connect. When it does it becomes a unique ultra violent, cartoonish cinematic experience. Although it's not great there's definitely enough here to merit a light reccomendation.
