It's a repetitious nightmare terrorizing the local cinema. There's always that one person who laughs so loud and for such an extended amount of time that the next few lines in the movie are missed.Be prepared for much of the same, as Good Luck Chuck will leave viewers gasping for air with nonstop humor and an outrageously funny cast.
Prepare for military-style pushups, renegade basketballs and extensive amounts of laps when Mr. Woodcock wears the whistle.
With more one-liners than Leon Phelps, Shoot 'Em Up, starring Clive Owen (Children of Men) and Paul Giamatti (Lady in the Water), offers enough suave swooning to win over the prudest of fans.Owen plays Mr. Smith, a down-on-his-luck chap who gets caught up in the chase between a pregnant woman and a mysterious mob of hit-men gunning for her life.The opening scene does the film justice by delivering one of the more intense shoot-outs in recent memory.
