Movie Review: 2 Guns – Starring Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg
Academy Award Winner ~ Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg lead an all-star cast in the explosive action hit 2 Guns! Be the first to own it on digital HD on November 5th, 2013 and bring home the Blu-ray combo pack, DVD and Digital HD with Ultraviolet on November 19th, 2013.
Denzel Washington (Safe House, Flight) and Mark Wahlberg (Contraband, Ted) star in 2 Guns, an adrenaline-fueled picture that tracks two operatives from competing bureaus who must team up for their mutual benefit and survival.
When an attempt to take down a drug cartel blows up in their faces, two undercover operatives are forced to go on the run together, though neither knows that the other is a federal agent. Suddenly, everyone on both sides of the law wants them dead, and their only hope is to trust each other. Filled with non-stop action and suspense, critics are raving “Washington and Wahlberg are at their very best” (Pete Hammond, Movieline).
Also featuring Paula Patton (Mission Impossible-Ghost Protocol, Baggage Claim), Fred Ward (Sweet Home Alabama, Tremors), James Marsden (X-men series, The Butler), Bill Paxton (Apollo 13, “Big Love”), Andrew Cosby (“Eureka”), and Edward James Olmos (“Battlestar Galactica,” Blade Runner), 2 Guns will take you on one highly charged thrill ride.
My Thoughts: Let me first say this…I LOVED THIS ONE!!! It is no secret here on the Two Classy Chics blog that I am a total action flick chic! I have been a huge fan of Denzel’s and Mark’s for many years! My favorite Denzel Washington film is “Man on Fire” and my favorite Mark Wahlberg film is “Shooter”. As you can see, both of those movies are action flicks and in my top 50 of all-time favorite movies!
This movie has a little bit of comedy thrown into it but is mainly an action flick. The acting by both actors is top-notch and the story line is different than other crime dramas and very entertaining. The action scenes are fantastic and trust me, this movie is jam-packed with a lot of action! I was sitting on the edge of my seat from start to finish! Hubby and I enjoyed this movie so much that we watched it 3 times in 3 days! Seriously, it is that good!
The movie is available right now on Digital HD but if you want to own the Blu-ray combo pack or DVD…you will want to head to your local store or order it online on November 19th, 2013. This movie would make a great holiday gift this year for the person who enjoys action-packed movies. I am giving it 8 stars out of 10 stars on my movie rating scale. A Must Have!
