SUMMARY

Something to do with a baby BANGBANGBANG.

RATATATATATATATTA BANG BANG BANG PAUSE

... BANGBANGBANG

BANG CHICK-CHIK BOOM CHICK-CHICK BOOM BANG

The movie is something like 90 minutes long with 80 minutes of gunfights. I'm going to go see it in...4 hours. You should too.

REVIEWS
Everything about this neo-noir version of an Itchy & Scratchy marathon is casually ludicrous, right down to its back-handed advocacy of - wait for it - gun control.
This wet dream for action junkies leaves out logic and motivation -- you know, all the boring stuff.
Writer-director Michael Davis has stripped the action movie down to its essence in a mind-blowing mash-up fueled with testosterone, adrenaline, and weapons-grade explosives.
The 'Best Use of a Carrot as a Weapon Award' goes to Clive Owen as Mr Smith

DISCUSS

Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner.

Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the outcome.

    Looks like it will be a movie that lives up to the expectations of those who are indifferent.

    This is the kind of film I will see with a huge box of popcorn, maybe a giant coke and just munch away the whole film.

    God Ive missed films like this.

    No thank you, it doesn't look like a movie that I would enjoy with my eyes or brain.

    Ah, ok. Not overly sure I'm going to go to both. Wasn't the whole point of the movie that it was two movies in one. Splitting it seems odd. Especially if they get rid of the trailers in between.
