This is the movie that I was hoping The Expendables would be. Bruce Willis stars as an ex-CIA black-operative designated RED (Retired Extremely Dangerous) who is trying to transition into "regular life". He is pulled back into the business with a civilian woman he just met for the first time and resorts to getting help from his fellow RED colleagues (Mirren, Malkovich, and Freeman). This film is witty, fully tongue-in-cheek, and bordering on slapstick. But fortunately, it never crosses the line into slapstick and is just a fun adventure-thriller built on quirky characters. Quite fun.
4 stars (out of 5)
