When I rented Shoot 'Em Up, I was just expecting an action movie. Nothing more. But when I saw how the first guy was killed, I KNEW this movie was completely stupid. A carrot?! I knew this movie would have ridiculous parts in it but are you kidding me?!!! So stupid.
So to the "plot" of this movie. A man known as Smith sees some men with guns chasing a pregnant woman. He follows, delivers the baby, and decides to protect it. Then the shooting begins. Sounded okay at first...
I guess that my main problem with this movie is that it was COMPLETELY hypocritical. It ended up having a "theme" (if thats what you want to call it) which was that we need gun control and people shouldn't be allowed to own guns. In a movie all about killing people, that was the theme. Again, are you kidding me? Now to Smith. The wah-hah boo-hoo bad ass. Honestly, this guy has a problem with people cutting others off and not using a traffic signal(so much so that he ends up ramming the guy's car and forcing him to run into a parked car) but he doesn't even think twice about stealing someone else's car. WTF?! And he whines and cries about the second amendment because something bad happened to his family. Well bud, just think if you would've taken advantage of that right and had a gun on you, then you could've stopped it from happening.
Overall, this movie was absolute trash. I wouldn't have minded it too much if they kept their political whining out of it and got rid of Smith's "Carrot Powers"(honestly, there's way too over-the-top, then there's this).
