Review of the Action Comedy Shoot Em Up
Friday September 7, 2007
I'll probably get more angry emails over this review than any review I've written this year. I can read them now... "How can you give an A- to such a violent movie?" And then there will also be loads of, "Have you lost your mind? He's running around shooting people while holding a newborn baby!" I know, I know, I know. But you have to take this movie as it's intended. It's a comedy, people. The violence is so outrageously over-the-top there's no way to interpret Shoot Em Up as anything but a total tongue-in-cheek action flick. It never takes itself seriously should why should we?

Although they are on opposites sides of the law in the movie, Fonda and Foster came together to talk about working with Crowe, Christian Bale, and horses on director James Mangold's film based on an Elmore Leonard story.
