Shoot 'Em Up (2007)



The Good:
Some of the action was kinda fun.
I somewhat enjoyed Paul Giamatti and Monica Bellucci.

The Bad:
Horrible one-liners throughout the whole freaking movie.
Extremely ridiculous action that begins even before the film attempts to establish any kind of suspension of disbelief.
I didn't realize Clive Owen could act badly.
The "good guy" was too too much of an expert at everything.
There was so much over-the-top action that it got a bit boring.
The whole carrots thing was stupid.

Overall: Even as a farce, this is a bad movie. Skip it. It has few redeeming qualities. I have no idea how it has a 7 out of 10 on IMDB, some one please tell me.

I am going to avoid this one - simply because, as you state, I don't know that Clive Owen can act badly... and I'd like to keep it that way.
