Review of Shoot 'Em Up (2007) by Zeus M — 02 Apr 2012
Bang bang here, bang bang there. The title is perfect for this film which is perpetually under fire. A man(Clive Owen) sitting somewhere along the streets sees a pregnant woman being chased by another man.
The sitting man seek to help the woman and ends up taking care of her newborn baby after the woman's sudden death. And it seems that there's this big shot guy(Paul Giamatti)who's tracking the the infant so he can smash the little thing.
Smith, the sitting man's name, went to a gorgeous and uber sexy prostitute(Monica Belluci) to aid him in finding out the mystery of the neonate's situation. I believe that this film intends to satisfy the audience by feeding us with millions of bullets, gunshot holes, and dead bodies.
So much for the lead character he doesn't even have a backstory and his name is plainly Smith. Also the script might be a little too dumb for a thinking man to appreciate. But still the film is funny, outrageously violent, and stylishly done.
You might like to watch this film if you feel like doing nothing. It's not really a waste of time.
