Shoot ‘Em Up

Written by randem

Holy crap! If you’re in need of an abdominal workout, don’t go to the gym, go to the movie theater and watch Shoot ‘Em Up, starring Clive Owen.

When the opening scene involves delivering a baby in the middle of a shoot-out, and then shooting off the umbilical cord, you know exactly what you’re in for.

This movie makes no pretenses about what it is: an over-the-top action film with non-stop shooting and almost no discernible plot whatsoever. Just like snakes on a plane, the filmmakers didn’t waste any time or money trying to justify the movie… they simply made it and said “there it is, in your face.”

The stunts are impossible, the body count is immeasurable, the dialog is terrible, and the laughs are a mile a minute.
