RED

Another viewpoint :-)

RED is a kinda-action movie that doesn't take itself seriously at all. There is absolutely nothing serious or grim about it -- it's a "turn it up to eleven and have fun" thing. Bruce Willis is just being Bruce Willis, but John Malkovich and Helen Mirren are both very good. I found the movie funny much more often than once every half an hour. It's not (and doesn't pretend to be) deep or intellectual and it's not especially satisfying in any particular way -- however it's a mindlessly fun way to spend an hour and a half, provided you dont' mind mindless fun. The sequel is worse, as usual.
