Review of Red (1996) by Jason L — 08 Jul 2013
Based on a graphic novel of the same name, this over-the-top action thriller involves retired CIA, KGB and other paramilitary types who are involved in a nefarious plot to take out all the surviving members of a former elite squad.
It's the A-Team with Centrum Silver. And probably not as entertaining. I enjoyed the movie the way I enjoy watching a TBS late night Resident Evil marathon. I would never pay to watch it, but it's still mindless fun.
Ridiculous and mindless fun. Really. Don't apply Bourne Identity or current military type rules to this movie or else you will be unable to appreciate how insanely ridiculous it all really is.
