Bullets 'n' Babes

This looked good fun in an OTT sort of way

I saw the trailer at the cinema and it starts with cheesy romantic music - "From The Makers of 4 Weddings, Bridget Jones and Love Actually" and the music turns into the classic Ace of Spades by Motorhead, and I was like WTF

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475394/

Hailed by some on Imports forum as 2007's Crank (but I've not seen Crank).

A movie about hitmen... all seemingly going after 1 target...

Anyway, trailer looks .... interesting.
cast looks impressive, as does the cinematography.
Although some of the art-direction (clothing, colors) is a bit 'vibrant'...

It looks like this could be either a very very entertaining movie... or turn out to be complete and utter shite. Hard to tell , but certainly one to keep an eye on...

I checked out the trailer last night and boy it looks weird. Not at all what you expect from the director of the excellent Narc.

I don't know how to take it at all.

Good job, Brad, with bringing my old post over into this existing thread.

My apologies for not noticing there was already a thread on this movie.

No worries

I've been doing so for a while now

, glad you're pleased (it's not always an easy task

). I'd much prefer being able to merge properly but it can't be done (just splitting).

Anyone going to see this when it comes out?

*Watches trailer*
I dunno, looks like a Hollywood version of an early Guy Ritchie movie. Seems more like one of those "wait for the DVD" type of films TBH.

I had no idea what it was even about till I saw the trailer during an ad break. Then I went "ugh."
I'll pass.

Word suggests it's more sub-Tarantino unpleasentness.

Posted: **13 Jan 2007, 18:47**

Well when you see it you can say

but hell most these "Sub Tatrntino" films are nothing at all like his films anyway, just people who havent seen them thinking they are. Which is dumb as a bag of spanners.

Posted: **13 Jan 2007, 22:22**

Dumb as a bag of spanners is sitting thru them.

Smokin' Aces 4/5... (maybe 4.5)
Guess no one else has seen this yet? Well I have. It's awesome.

It's very "Guy Ritchie" in style and stands well alongside Lock Stock and Snatch. As a result, it is far more comical than Narc but is still noticeably dark. Carnahan's one to watch out for.

The UK artwork is pretty cool:

I saw it and it just disapointed me, all build up and no realy pay off sadly I expected a lot more action at the end

I liked it, but far from great like it should have been. Will get the dvd when its very cheap, no way I will pay full price

If they can extended the end fight by about 20 minutes then I say good, and cut out the awful acting and charecter work from Jeremy Piven
what a god awful actor he is, he ruined the film for me.
