Shoot ‘Em Up

Looking for some action? Shoot ‘Em Up guarantees it! Excellent movie with a bit of a Tarantino flavour with stars such as Clive Owen, Monica Bellucci and Paul Giamatti.

Mr. Smith (Clive Owen) is waiting for a bus when a pregnant woman runs by, chased by
a group of thugs. Smith kills them and delivers the baby, but the
mother is killed. Chased by the evil Mr. Hertz (Paul Giamatti) and an army of goons,
Smith enlists DQ (Monica Bellucci), a lactating prostitute, to help him care for the baby.
After
a series of gun fights, Smith discovers the truth. A Democratic
presidential candidate and supporter of draconian gun control measures
is dying, but had several supporters impregnated from his sperm so he
could harvest the children. The women were killed by Mr. Hertz who was
working for a wealthy firearms executive. However, Mr. Hertz and the
Democratic politican cut a deal to work together. Smith kills every one
of them personally, and in the end he reunites with DQ and the baby to
start a new family.

There are some places where the British humor gets a bit corny, but it’s all part of the movie’s style. Visit the official movie site, Shoot ‘Em Up.
