Smokin’ Aces

I want to give Squirrel a big nod for recommending this movie to me. My wife and I watched it the other night…and let me say it was pretty good. I am glad Squiz clarified that it was “just a great shoot’em-up flick”. Of course, I didn’t expect the plot to be too involved, but this accurate description of the movie was just the ticket to making the movie more enjoyable at the right time.
Jeremy Piven plays a soon-to-be federal informant against the mob. While he is waiting to be taken into protective custody, a motley crue of independent contract killers (all with varying degrees of methods and tactics) are on their way to kill him at whatever cost so that they can collect the $1M bounty on his head. Bullets and chaos ensue.
There are a lot of big and well recognized actors/musicians in this movie, which makes it even more enjoyable to watch. I really enjoyed the ending, as well.
I give Smokin’ Aces: 4.25 / 5 Squirrels!
