Red 2 - Old people acting silly and killing folks!

If you haven't seen the movie Red, check your tv listings and get on it.  It is an hilariously entertaining spy movie starring Bruce Willis, Mary-Louise Parker, Helen Merrin, and John Malkovich.  Red 2 picks up where Red left off: dodging bullets and crack skulls.

Red 2 brings back the original killer cast and adds Catherine Zeta-Jones, Anthony Hopkins, and Lee Byung-hun.  In this sequel, we find that there is a hit out on Frank Moses (Willis) and Marvin (Malkovich) due to some documents that were posted on the internet that says they were involved in weapons of mass destruction plot during the cold war.  The two don't know anything about that, but while running for their lives and trying to protect Frank's girlfriend (Parker), they find out that MI6 has hired their friend, Victoria Winslow (Merrin), to kill them, and the US government has hired Frank's nemesis, Han (Lee), to assassinate them as well.  All sorts of craziness ensues while globetrotting trying to figure out everything, save themselves, and the world from a nuclear boomb created by a insane genius played by Hopkins.

This movie is non-stop action and comedy.  John Malkovich is the comic relief in most scenes, but everyone has their funny moments.  Helen Merrin is such a tough chick and Mary-Louise Parker wants to be one so badly, that you can'd help but laugh at her.  Bruce Willis is on my old man CGI list.  I think it has something to do with the bald head, that soft tone he has in his voice, and his constant need to beat up on people.  I just can't get enough of him.  I think I've seen all of his movies that has come out in the last 15 years.  The great Anthony Hopkins as an insane bad guy isn't a new role, but he's such a great actor that you don't care that he's like Hannibal Lecter on LSD.  Hopkins is funny and a little creepy at the same time.  Red 2 is a very silly movie, but it's mix of high flying stunts, gun play, and comedy really keep you entertained.  I enjoyed it, and although I don't like movie series, I'd be glad to see a Red 3.
