'Shoot 'Em Up' Provides Silly Thrillsnew
Shoot ’Em Up is the most audacious, over-the-top and gleefully depraved movie in recent memory, supplying a nonstop stream of giddy thrills as it chucks logic and science and common sense out the window.

'Shoot 'Em Up' is Like Watching a Video Gamenew
In Shoot 'Em Up, the action is so dark, blurry, shaky, and chopped up, you may find yourself squinting and bobbing your head to try and get a better look.

Clive Owen Kills with Carrotsnew
Deep it ain't, cartoonish it is, but Shoot 'Em Up is certainly fun, and peppered with calculated, eye-bugging originality.
