Do you guys recommend Shoot 'em Up?

[dj02bothell]

The movie looks enjoyable, but worth it on blu?

[lgans316]

Definitely if you like mindless action. Not worth anything more than $18.

i never saw it on blu, only in the movies and on DVD, but i thought it was really cool and over the top.

[Jimbo976]

As long as you have the right expectations the movie is tons of fun. You can't take it seriously at all. It is a very over the top ride that looks great and is enjoyable.

I staunchly endorse it! Well worth it! Great fun film with excellent technical qualities!

[gem_n_webz]

certainly a fun and mindless romp. one movie i am really looking forward to getting on bd.

[u_nick]

I thought it was garbage, but I talk to lots of people that seemed to love it!

[davidxiphoid]

no....

netflix it. you'll either love it..or in my case HATE it with a big passion .

[JasonR]

Great film. Just go in expecting a fun & ridiculous movie with great AQ and PQ. Turn your brain off for a couple hours and enjoy all the gunfire, action, and cheesiness.

[Heart&Soul]

Definitely. I laughed through it and my wife rolled her eyes.

[Blu Titan]

A great ride to be enjoyed. Lots of fun!

[owa]

Lots of fun and it looks/sounds good. Definitely worth picking up.

this thread forced me to order it, kehe...

[Downhere]

I'd say rent it first, it wasn't all that great.

good decision.

Couldn't even finish watching it - totally crap (but beautifully filmed and outstanding sound- which makes it an even bigger waste than the flic itself). So far of my 120+ purchases this gets the Bronze Turd award. Oh yeah, it's on my trading list.

Awwwww......NO!

I thought it was bad as well. Barely watchable. The same concept with a good director could have been great, but this wasnt. People rave about the PQ which was quite sharp in high contrast shots but full of blotchy artifacts in the shadow details like a bad MPEG2.

Shoot Em Up is very cool and the BD is fantastic (excellent picture and sound). This movie is a very fun ride. If you enjoyed Pulp Fiction, Sin City, and Kill Bill...you will enjoy Shoot Em Up too. BTW, those three films that I just mentioned are three of my favorite films and so naturally I am biased to Shoot Em Up as well.

The first ones you mentioned are my favorite films as well I would rate them in order 9/10, 7/10, 10/10 however IMO "Shoot Em Up" is flat in almost every scene and not in the same league at all, I would rate it 3/10.
