Como's back. back again
Shoot 'Em Up*

Was this movie a joke? WOW it was more of a comedy.

Ridiculous is all I have to say.

It was shot well, but the story, and the cheesiness was just so bad!
 
I think it was supposed to be intentionally cheesy. I thought it looked like a higher budget version of Crank, but I never got around to seeing it.

I may rent it sometime soon...
 
saw it when a friend asked me to go. Pretty pointless. I couldn't understand the appeal at all, but I dont like brainless action flicks which this seems to want to be the ultimate example of, soooooo...
 
think looney toons meets john woo. a carrot chomping good guy who never gets hit. a short bald adversary with a gun who will stop at nothing to " kill da wabbit" (note wagners tune as the ring tone). throw in a "whats up doc" and a coupla rube goldberg contraptions and bingo, a silly fun movie that isn't afraid to completely make fun of not only the genre, but itself.
thanks

I cannot begin to say how bad this film was. It was just so incredibly stupid. I knew exactly what it was trying to do but it failed on so many levels. Okay, the guy eats carrots. Yeah, references to looney toons. woo-hoo. Just the fact that they had clive owen chewing on carrots the whole movie, showed how desperate they were and how hard they were trying to be cute. the rest of the movie was just sooooooo dumb. I can't even describe how dumb it was to somebody who hasn't seen it.
