Guns Akimbo

I was going to rate this movie with seven stars but after thinking about it Guns Akimbo deserves an eight, especially in this genre of movie. The excellent cinematography makes this movie stand out from the rest. Jason Lei Howden did a good job directing and writing this movie. There are some flaws in the story but if you can just pass that then you should have a pleasant time watching this movie full of action scenes. Visually it's all quality shooting, the different angles, the fast pace and slow motions shots are all perfect, it's an unique and interesting style of filmmaking. Daniel Radcliffe isn't the little boy Harry Potter anymore, he's done plenty of good movies by now, he doesn't stick to one kind of character, on the contrary he played several of different characters since the Harry Potter saga and once again he showed us all that he's a good actor. I wouldn't be surprised if we had a sequel for this one, I would for sure watch it.

This is not Upgrade. This is not Crank. This is garbage. I went into watching this with an open mind, wanting to get a bit of laughs and thrills, given the fact that this sort of movie type has been done before, I was hoping for this to be sort of good. But boy was I wrong! This film does not have a clue what it wants to be.. be it comedy, action, drama, quasi-comic adaptation. It's none of the above. It's boring, repetitive, badly acted, the CGI is laughable and the action scenes pull you out of the movie. Please, don't watch this. It is NOT good. It's not even "sso bad it's good" bad. It's just a waste of time.

8/10🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠 Why are people hating on fun films all of a sudden as if wizards and warlocks are fact based documentaries and over the top action comedies are a step too far. This film brings it from the opening credits until the last scene. I was a little weary about watching it from a couple reviews I read but the film was way more enjoyable than described. The storyline is original and it takes enough time to build anticipation without being predictable and that goes a long way for dark action comedies that either try and be too cool and fall short of fast and furious or too Hi-tech imitating 007 or mission impossible this film does well with better than average effects on a moderate budget while being hilarious throughout the entire film. Definitely a must watch if you like fun rides don't sleep and skip this flick. Between Daniel and Samara Weaving I had a blast.

Put some of the concepts that you saw in Deadpool, Birds of Prey, Crank, John Wick, Scott Pillgrim and Kick Ass in a blender and you will have an explosive and incredible cocktail called Guns Akimbo. It's an awesome movie with a simple story and there is space for nice (and crazy) characters, dark humor, geek references, violence, some plot twists and unstoppable action sequences. I wish to watch more action films so entertaining as Guns Akimbo.
