R E D

Willis made the only film I ever walked out on, (Hudson Hawk)but was never detered from continuing to let him show me a good time and boy does he ever. It was 3PM on a work day and the show was full. We hollered and laughed, we clapped and whistled. Hot damn he was at it again but this time with pros that stole the show ever other scene. Mirren with heavy artillery and almost apologetic for not being able to quite "cut the killing habit", a hoot and holler while still being the perfect lady enjoying a little girl time with Mary Louise who just thinks its all one grand time, finally. Bruce and the rest are at their laid back best while Malcovich should get at least a mention at an Oscar for just being nuts. He was genius.
Morgan Freeman continues to deliver regardless of the role and Bruce is totally believable playing the reluctant retiree flirting with a girl in the pension office, as he is beating his young nemesis half to death. In the end they garner your respect if for nothing else than bejng able to deliver on cue and show you why they are older and still a box office draw. They know what the hell they're doing. Want to laugh and have a good time? Go see the movie, you cant lose with this one.
