Shoot 'Em Up
(USA, 2007, 86 minutes)
A mysterious gunman helps a pregnant woman give birth but finds it's her baby the bad guys are really after. Ludicrously outrageous actioner that seems assembled exclusively for the purpose of providing a number of unbelievably preposterous action setpieces expertly performed by a cool-looking cast; but it's all done in such a tongue-in-cheek manner that it becomes a truly enjoyable moment of utterly mindless, braindead fun. Has to be seen to be believed.
New Line Cinema presents a Montford Murphy production. Starring Clive Owen, Paul Giamatti, Monica Bellucci, Stephen McHattie, Greg Bryk. Directed and written by Michael Davis; produced by Susan Montford, Don Murphy, Rick Benattar; music by Paul Haslinger; director of photography (DeLuxe, widescreen), Peter Pau; production designer, Gary Frutkoff; costume designer, Denise Cronenberg; film editor, Peter Amundson.
