ShangLuda Admirable film.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Jackson Booth-Millard I missed this film on TV a couple of times, I remember it obviously for the two leading actors, I couldn't guess anything about the plot from the title, so I was hoping to be pleasantly surprised, directed by Baltasar Kormákur (Contraband, Everest). Basically criminals Robert "Bobby" Trench (Denzel Washington) and Michael "Stig" Stigman (Mark Wahlberg) are planning to $3 million stashed in the vault of the Tres Cruces bank. Unknown to Stig, Bobby is an undercover DEA agent trying to convict Manny "Papi" Greco (Edward James Olmos) in Mexico, he failed to acquire to use as evidence, so he plans to prosecute Pape with money laundering, he will remain undercover until after the robbery. While Bobby is having a rendezvous with fellow DEA agent and former lover Deb Rees (Paula Patton), he is unaware that Stig is also undercover, he is an Intelligence Specialist with the Navy SEALs, he has been instructed to kill Bobby so the Navy can use the stolen money to fund unauthorised covert operations. During the heist, Bobby and Stig are surprised to find $43.125 million in the vault, after the heist, Stig follows the orders of his commanding officer LCDR Harold Quince (James Marsden), to betray Bobby and escape with the money. But Stig is unwilling to kill Bobby, he shoots him in the shoulder, a flesh wound, then he sees Bobby's DEA badge, not sure what to think, he leaves Bobby in the desert and takes the money. Stig meets with Quince, who tries to kill him when he learns what happened, Stig escapes after learning the money will be transferred to a Navy base in Corpus Christi. Meanwhile a man named Earl (Bill Paxton), head of a shadowy organisation, aggressively interrogates the Tres Cruces bank manager about the stolen money, he tracks Bobby's movements. Bobby goes to Stig's apartment to find where he took the money, Sniper however is outside, watching with a sniper's rifle, Quince has sent a hit squad to attack the apartment, but Bobby and Stig escape. Bobby visits his superior DEA Special Agent Jessup (Robert John Burke) to tell him what happened, but Earl and his men are waiting for him, Earl kills Jessup, frames Bobby for the murder, he makes a deal with Bobby if the $43 million is returned, he will be cleared. Bobby and Stig kidnap Papi to interrogate him in the garage at Deb's house, they find out Earl is a black ops operative to whom Papi reports, and that the stolen money belongs to the CIA. The garage is attacked by another hit squad, led by Quince, the trio end up being captured by Papi and taken to his farm in Mexico, after beating them and receiving a visit from Earl, the pair are given 24 hours to steal the money from the Navy and return it, or Deb will die. At the base, infiltrating Quince's office, Bobby discovers Quince is Deb's boyfriend, they had planned to steal the money for themselves, meanwhile Stig asks Admiral Tuwey (Fred Ward), but Tuway does not the scandal to tarnish the Navy's reputation, Quince evades arrest, as does Stig. Bobby is unable to find the money and thinks it is too late to save Deb, but then he realises the money is stashed in a motel room he and Deb frequented, he goes to help Stig, who is returning to Papi's farm alone to exact revenge. At the farm, Stig is surrounded by Papi's men until both Quince and Earl intervene, Bobby arrives in a car filled with the money, and then blows up the car, scattering the money everywhere, which leads to a massive shootout. During a standoff among Quince, Earl, Bobby and Stig, Earl reveals the CIA have 20 other secret banks, the loss of $43.125 million is only a minor setback, Stig shoots Earl, and Bobby shoots Quince, finally the duo shoot Papi outside. In the end, Bobby and Stig escape, allowing the locals to pick up the million of dollars for themselves, Bobby shoots Stig in the leg as payback for shooting him in the shoulder, they plan to take down the CIA's secret banks and sabotage their black operations, but Bobby reveals to Stig he did not blow up all the money, he has stashed some away. Also starring Patrick Fischler as Dr. Ken, Evie Thompson as Patsy, Dr. Ken's Assistant and Greg Sproles as Chief Lucas. Washington and Wahlberg are perfectly cast as the wisecracking leads, bouncing razor- sharp banter back and forth, and Olmos as the drug kingpin and Paxton being sinister are terrific bad guys, it is a botched up bank job turning into a game of cat-and-mouse with the mob, with well-paced chase sequences, explosions and all guns blazing action, but leaving enough room for a clever plot and twists, a great fun crime drama. Very good!

Gordon-11 This film tells the story of two criminals who are informed that the bank holds $3 million in the safe. They successfully rob the bank, only to find way more money than they expected.They soon find themselves being chased after by multiple criminals and agencies. They have to entangle themselves from the elaborate setup they get themselves into."2 Guns" is a rare occasion where action and comedy both work well. The tone of the film is light hearted, but never becomes silly or outrageous. Good jokes come in form of witty lines by the main characters. There is a lot of action to provide adrenaline rush, making it a proper action film. The story twists and turns, and is simply full of pleasant surprises. I enjoyed watching it.

tbills2 Mark Wahlberg and Denzel Washington. That's a fact. These 2 heavyweights carry this action-comedy into generous watchability. Impressive. When I go see an action flick starring Mark and Denzel I expect to see a really good movie, not just a kind of good movie, and that's what this is. The 2 leads are funny and the action is well played. 2 Guns would be a lot better if it wasn't so cliché and "ununique". I love both of these 2 stars. Mark can act very well and Denzel can act very, very well. Denzel's one of the best. Mark 2, right? Paula Patton's really nice to see. She can take me home, anytime. I give 2 Guns 2 thumbs up! 2 Guns is 2 funs!

g-bodyl What happens when you combine the starpower of Mark Wahlberg and Denzel Washington? You get a fantastic, action-packed bonanza called 2 Guns. This film hearkens back to the 1980's where these kind of films were made constantly and this film does a good job in bringing back memories. I loved the violent, over-the-top action and I also loved the comedic interplay between the two stars. All of that combined made this movie a fun ride.This film has kind of a unique concept. What if two men were paired with each other and both did not know that their partners were undercover cops? Well that was the case for Robert Trench and Michael Stigman. After a drug bust on a drug lord named Greco goes wrong, the two men go on the run where they ultimately must learn to trust each other.The acting isn't too bad after all. Denzel's career has been more "fun" as of late and he does a good job here. He even makes Mark Wahlberg a better actor with his presence. The witty interplay between the two is worth the price of admission alone. 80's favorite Bill Paxton does a great job as the CIA man who no one wants to mess with.Overall, 2 Guns is an action-packed, explosives-filled film. It doesn't offer anything new, but what it does is promise a really fun time. The script may not be the best, but Denzel and Marky Mark do what they can to make a serviceable film. I had a blast watching the film and it's nice to see Denzel have a fun time for once. I rate this film 9/10.
