It's a comedy. Pure and simple. Black hearted, stupid but very funny and one of those films that's likely to get funnier every time you watch it. Not a classic by any means, but still very entertaining.

Wow some people just don't know how to have a f*cken good time. I was amazingly entertained by this movie. Nothing was realistic, and i dont care. It was fun, exciting, complete action. If its not your genre, don't rate it a 0, base it on how it appeals to people who do like it.

This movie is underrated by the critics, simple as that. Its quite good, but not in the "good good" sort of way. This movie is exactly what its title says, and it really is basically what would happen if you took an action movie, removed a lot of the "people talking", and then released it into the wild. It sounds stupid, and ultimately, is stupid, but it is stupid in an incredibly wonderful way. If you enjoy action movies, you'll enjoy this because this is why you enjoy action movies. If you don't enjoy action movies, you'll hate this movie because there is nothing else to it - it is nothing but an action movie. The protagonist's carrot eating, his ridiculous means of killing people, the wonderfully coreographed but completely insane gunfights... its amazing. Dumb, but amazing. Its worth watching. Not the best movie ever, but possibly one of the purest.

A mixture of Wanted and Crank, havent seen such a hilarious move for some time.
Benjamin K. gave it an8:
You can't really go wrong with a movie that has a sex scene involving a gunfight and an infant.
Scott Q gave it a2:
I am all for action, blood and violence, don't get me wrong, but this is really a horrible movie, seriously, this is really bad.
