Movie Review

Grade: D+ OK, wow. I don't know how to begin. I just watched Shoot 'Em Up, which arrives on DVD on January 1, 2008. It's really a piece of crap, albeit an entertaining piece of crap. Writer/director Michael Davis must have - hopefully - known that his movie is garbage and appears to have had a fun time making this ludicrous fluff piece. The actors, on the other hand, appear to have just shown up for a paycheck.

Shoot Em Up, by Donna A.

September 14, 2007

Even thou Clive Owen is a hottie. His movies are hit or miss with me. When I heard about this movie awhile back. I knew I didn't want to see it.
