Jason versus 2 Guns

Nothing says the work week is over like a couple of brews, some violent bloodshed and a pair of boobies. Throw in a cast that includes Denzel Washington , Mark Wahlberg , Bill Paxton , and the hotness that is Paula Patton (and her boobs) and you've got a winner, right? Right? A DEA agent and a naval intelligence officer find themselves on the run after a botched attempt to infiltrate a drug cartel . While fleeing, they learn the secret of their shaky alliance: Neither knew that the other was an undercover agent . Truth is, 2 Guns isn't as much fun as it should've been. Yes, Washington and Wahlberg have a great chemistry, Paula Patton is hot and shows her boobs, and Paxton owns every scene he's in. But, and this is a heavy but for an action flick, there just isn't enough on-screen carnage to satisfy my end-of-the-week bloodlust. Yes, there's a lot to enjoy in 2 Guns. And I did like my one watch for sure. But I'm not sold on the idea of watching...

Girl's Eye View: 2 Guns

Allow me to quickly introduce myself: My name is Kara, and I live over at www.karaschatter.com . I have no experience in the movie industry, other than watching and appreciating them. I thought I would offer up my movie reviewing skills, or lack thereof, to The Basement to give readers a female perspective on movies, new, old, good, and bad.  Oh Denzel. Oh Mark. Oh my sanity! I’m not sure what there isn’t to like about this movie; there’s great acting by a couple of Hollywood’s finest, gun-slingin’ action, drugs, money - How can it get any better? 2 Guns was a great movie for what it is. It doesn’t confuse you, there’s no twisty plot twists, just good ol’ fashion fun. Denzel Washington plays an undercover DEA agent and Mark Wahlberg plays an undercover Navy SEAL. Neither of them have any idea but somehow join forces to rob a Mexican drug lord’s cash-stash at a bank. Shit hits the fan and well, they stick together to figure what the F is going on. ...
