2 Guns - 2 Good

2 truths:
As a black woman, I'm supposed to think Denzel is the end all to be all in good looking black actors.  Truth is, he's alright.  Although he looks very hood handsome in this movie with his fedora, gold teeth, and silk shirts, there's many more handsome men out there.  Sadly, they aren't on the big screen or the small one for that matter.  Denzel is also getting older and has an old man's body which I really don't want to see.  He just doesn't do it for me, and if you are honest with yourself, you'd agree with me.
2.  Ever since Denzel won his oscar for Training Day, Denzel is always getting called for the n*gga role (my black friends will understand what I mean).  Truth is, he never plays a role with diversity or complexity anymore.  Malcolm X was the last role of interest for me (until now), and I've seen damn near every movie he's made since X.  Mr. Washington needs to get on that Morgan Freeman (who's played God), Will Smith agenda, and play roles that aren't defined by race before Idris Elba, my husband who I feel is much better looking and way sexier, takes his crown.

2 stars:
The movie 2 Guns stars Mark Wahlberg and Denzel Washington.  They compliment each other greatly in this movie about 2 undercover law enforcement agents with separate agendas.  Their comedic timing is perfect.  It felt like they've been working together on and off the screen.  I would definitely love to see then together again in a sequel or something else.

2 stories:
There's the story of these two trying to take down a mexican drug lord, and there's also the story of them trying to figure out who framed them for robbery, why, and who each of them really are.  All of these are intertwined really well.  The average movie goer will constantly be guessing and trying to figure things out; I, of course, figured out everything about 1 hour into the action.

2 countries:
Mexico and Texas (I know Texas is a state, but it's huge enough to be it's own country and it is in the USA so it's the second country) are the background for this movie.  There's lot's of border crossing to make one's feet hurt.  The plot also throws in a government conspiracy about how Mexican drug lords keep getting drugs into the US.  This Texas girl was proud to see all those Texas license plate, and a movie full of Texans that don't sound like country hicks.  Good job Mr. Director (Baltasar Kormakur)!

2 Chainz:
No, 2 Chainz isn't in this movie.  I just ran outta 2s.  I went into this movie thinking it was gonna suck.  The previews don't look that great.  I only went to see it because I knew yall were gonna want to know my thoughts.  Surprisingly, I loved it!  It had great action, Paula Patton's boobs (that one is for the fellas), lot's of gun play, drama, and comedy.  What more could you ask for in a movie.  I'd see it again and again (may add it to my dvd collection).  Thanks for being my motivation.  I saw a great one because of yall.
