I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one that thought poorly of Shoot 'Em Up. I actually gave up after the first half-hour, which I NEVER do. Oh well!

khriz01/30/2008

Lol a generous rating. I gave it a 4. It is so ridiculous it makes Sin City and The Punisher look realistic. I think I stopped counting his kill total at around 70+. Also the bit where he managed to get from his car to the back of that van and kill them all was just...well yeh. This style of film was perfected with Sin City and in my humble opinion they should stop making them.

On the plus side you gave Das Boot a 9 :) great film. Haven't seen that in years, may try and track it down actually.

Yeah, its one of those films that I dreaded seeing for a long time because I knew Id really have to dedicate the time to it. Im not sure what stopped me from giving it a 10, but...

As for Shoot Em Up, take a look at my review section and see what I wrote about it there.
