Movie Review: Shoot’em Up

This was a hilariously over-the-top action movie. Clive Owen stars as a one of the most ingenious shooters in movie history as he starts off the story with one outrageously impossible stunt involving a gun and seconds later another, and another, then another. You’ll lose count. Filled with these ridiculous feats and horrendously cliched one-liners the movie does the impossible and makes you like it. Hell it make syou laugh out loud. Writer/Director Michael Davis must have sat down and put to paper every stunt he possible could have thought of and then wrapped it round a pretty basic evil bad guy plot, then stuck in all the puns he could. And it turned out to be a fun, enjoyable film. Extremely bloody and violent… but fun.
