Gunpowder Milkshake

Ignore all the negative reviews on here. This film is exactly what it says on the tin -- essentially, a female John Wick -- and it owns that. The dialogue is snappy, the performances are winking, the actors are having fun, and it's generally just a good time. If you enjoyed Keanu Reeves checking into a hotel with an infinite amount of magic coins and using all sorts of code words for guns to avenge his dog, you can handle Karen Gillan doing the same with classic works of literature to protect a little girl.

I like a stylistic action movie that doesn't take itself too seriously, and has some originality. Letting the ladies prove there's too few female lead action movies... Because they do better than many of the guys. It's an enjoyable watch with several good action scenes that actually let the ladies flex their action chops. I had fun watching it.

The film gets no points for originality as it's John Wick with girls. That being said, if you like action movies, it's pretty fun. Karen Gillan was good. Not a great movie, but I'll definitely tune in for the sequel. Worth a watch if you are a fan of the genre.

If you liked "shoot 'em up" for 2005... It's like a sequel... It just has the added Assassin Organisation trope to go with it... Enjoy the action, comedy and simple storyline...!

To ruin a film with such a strong cast, but this proves that a really bad script and clueless direction can do it. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer."
