Guns, Guns, Guns! Everything goes!

Rating: 9/10 (28 July 2011)

The film starts as a comedy-crime then gradually blends into a noir- drama. The poster may seem deceiving here since the movie doesn't belong to the war genre. That's interesting, because that probably makes this the best anti-war film you'll see with no battlefield action.
Probably what's more fascinating than the movie itself is it's lack of accolades. You may agree that it demanded at least one, the best writing award. Yet the film goes unmentioned at the Oscar's. I suspect that this has to do with the political theme of the film; the ruthless condemnation of western administrations and the affair between the "Security Council" and the "Freedom Fighters".
You will never see a weak moment in its entire runtime and the performances are excellent. Nicholas Cage does require a special mention. Andrew Nicole proves that he's no amateur (or was he ever!) and the best at what he does.
So go ahead grab a copy, sit back and let the narration run accompanied by outstanding cinematography and the bone chilling background score.
