Shoot Em Up! "A Ballet of Bullets"

If you dig mindless nonstop action, shot with style, spectacular photography and kinetic cleverness, Shoot Em Up! is the movie for you.
It's over the top, totally unbelievable, physically impossible, but absolutely brilliant all at the same time. It's more exciting than a Shoot-Out in a gun factory! Oh wait, there is a scene with a shoot-out in a gun factory.

Clive Owen eats a lot of carrots and values his privacy. There are many things that he absolutely hates, and he comes into contact with most of these things when he unwillingly gets involved in a plot to kill a very pregnant young woman. Suddenly faced with a nanny job, he shoots his way out of the frying pan and into the fire, each scenario more jaw-dropping-ly impossible than the last. Paul Giamatti plays an unlikely criminal mastermind and Monica Bellucci is under-utilized in but she sizzles as the proverbial professional girl with a heart of gold. She cares about her new baby so much that she bought him a bullet proof vest. Isn't that cute? There is a good plot here in this ballet of bullets. Things get political, and hopelessly complicated, and of course there's lots and lots (and lots) of shooting, during any (and I do mean ANY) situation. Four Stars!

Next I will dive into some mindless Sci Fi/Action/Horror.
