(Also appears on ShaunMunro.co.uk) Director: Michael Davis Cast: Monica Bellucci, Paul Giamatti, Clive Owen Release Date: September 7th (US), September 14th (UK) Certificate: R (US), 18 (UK) What is most evident about Michael Davis' 86-minute shot-of-adrenaline, aptly titled "Shoot 'Em Up", is that it does exactly as it advertises - the film, with as much sex, violence and foul language as Davis was able to cram into the running time, lands mere steps away from some of the overly outlandish fare from Looney Tunes cartoons. Moreover, as the bodies begin to form a rather sizable pile, the film can't be too far a cry from a ... Read the complete review

My last review of the year is the incredibly fun action comedy Shoot 'Em Up. A movie that I wrote off earlier in the year just simply because the movie's title was quite frankly shit! The adverts, and the all present bus stop billboard notices burned a hole in your brain, and made this a no go area for me. It was during the festive period that for whatever reason (I can't quite remember) I decided to put the DVD in my player. It took about 45 seconds into the actual story (intro's and credits not included) for me to be fixated by this story. I was thrilled, I was amused, but in honesty the plot is so thin that I can't really remember what it's all about, or ... Read the complete review

When a movie's called Shoot Em Up, you expect to find it on the bottom shelf of the rental store. What you don't expect to see is names such as Clive Owen, Monica Belluci and Paul Giamatti starring in it. The movie is a very difficult one to judge, you'll either like it or hate it. I don't think there can be much of an in-between. The film opens with Smith (Owen) sitting on a bench at night minding his own business. Soon the silence is broken by the screams of a pregnant woman running away from an angry guy. When a gun is shown, Owen follows in pursuit and finds himself embroiled in a gigantic shoot-up with various goons for hire. At the end he's ... Read the complete review

For me this was one of those films that kept me at the edge of the seat and waiting to see what would happen next, though admittedly some of the lines and scenes are a little cheesy. The film stars Clive Owen, Paul Giamatti and Monica Beluuci andstarts off with a scene of a guy sitting in a bus stop slowly eating a carrot. A pregnant woman struggles past him panting and gasping and makes her way down an alleyway. As the guy looks round he sees a car come screeching around the corner, smash into some parked cars and then a guy emerges from the vehicle with a pistol and follows the woman. Already you are intrigued by the story behind what's going ... Read the complete review
