Watched this Clive Owen action-comedy film with and at the recommendation of my friend Walker. We were both surprised it was so gruesome but then again it's deliberately over-the-top: much of its humor revolved around the absurdity of its gore. It was virtually a parody of the action genre.
The title says it all really; it was simply a hard, fast action movie, with a few jokes thrown in. It had a fairly grungy style, set in an American slum, but what it lacked in attractiveness was made up for in excellent, creative action sequences and a production values to match. 6.5/10
