Retired extremely dangerous! Violent laugh riot!

Rating: 9/10 (3 August 2013)

Right up front, it is hard to find a dull moment in this action comedy. Frank Moses(Bruce Willis), is a retired CIA black ops agent having a hard time living a mundane life. The brightest part of his life every month is tearing up his government paycheck and calling to flirt with his case worker, Sarah(Mary-Louis Parker), at the pension process center and unbeknown-st to him, the spy novel fan really enjoyed talking to him. Some unfinished work in his past forces Frank to go back to his work skills in order to stay alive and find who is trying to kill him. Frank gets the nerve to date Sarah, but she unwittingly gets involved with Frank's new activity. The revved up Frank summons old friends to join in the new mission. There is Joe(Morgan Freeman), who is so crafty, he seems to always be a step ahead of everyone else. Marvin(John Malkovich)is a weapons expert, but is a little hindered by his force-fed LSD mind control experiments. Then there is Victoria(Helen Mirren), who is the most adjusted to civilian life; but the former all-around bad ass secret agent is more than happy to join Frank's group. Sarah was at first reluctant to be part of this first date, that ended up in violent fist fights, rapid-fire gunfights and mangling car chases. Sarah soon is excited about living out one of her beloved spy novels. The relationship between Frank and Sarah is full of panic, combat and actually a special kind of romance. RED will have you on the edge of your seat and laughing your butt off. Also in the cast: Rebecca Pidgeon, Karl Urban, Jason Giuliano and John Crest. RED fails to let you leave disappointed.
