Product Description

Amazon.ca

You can take the agent out of the CIA, but you can't take the CIA out of the agent--or so discovers Frank Moses, to his chagrin. Frank, played by Bruce Willis, simply wants to live his simple life with his government pension. But when a troop of black-ops guys descends on his house one night and blows it to smithereens, Frank realizes he needs to get a few of his old colleagues together and find out what's what. That's the premise of Red, a jolly action flick based on a rather more serious graphic novel. Because Frank's old posse includes kicky roles for Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich, and a tea-pouring, hot-lead-spraying Helen Mirren, the movie boasts a certain appeal just at the "Holy cow, can you believe who's in this thing?" level. Actually, the rest of the cast is pretty sweet as well: Mary-Louise Parker steals much of the film as Frank's unsuspecting civilian date (swept into the action because she might innocently become a CIA target, too), Brian Cox hams it up as Frank's former Soviet adversary (wistfully recalling how he always wanted to assassinate a US president), and Karl Urban (Star Trek) supplies brawn and brains as the current CIA agent in charge of bringing the hammer down on Frank. The breezy tone barely pauses to notice the semi-serious story point at the heart of the plot (a hazily recalled disaster in Guatemala many years earlier), nor the dead bodies that pile up around the edges of the action. Flightplan director Robert Schwentke lets his actors act up, which is not a capital crime given the skills of the cast list, and he shoves the plot along with fitting speed. It's not art, but as a multiplex diversion, Red scatters a decent share of legitimate jolts and rim-shot one-liners. --Robert Horton

5.0 out of 5 stars RED - The movie Sep 5 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I loved this movie! First of all it has a stellar cast including Bruce Wilson, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich and Helen Mirren and they have chemistry! The action is a blast and rips along at a good pace. There are quieter moments of unexpectedly funny scenes and the sometimes subtle humour is hilarious. The movie's story grabs you early on. Just don't underestimate these characters! Enjoy the ride as you watch RED.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent cast turns B movie into an A Jan 23 2012
By Brian Maitland TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
The story itself would be pretty run-of-the-mill ex-spies on the run being hunted down for what they know (yep, basically Bourne series was the latest to mine this) but this movie reaches far beyond its B movie roots because of an excellent cast. Bruce Willis channels his best stoic Die Hard character. The woman from Big (Mary Louise Parker) is plausible as his love interest. Throw in a Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich playing his usual loopy self and Helen St. Mirren as a guntoting sniper, well, have you got a movie or what?

There's even a gratuitous Mermaid Man (Ernest Borgnine of Spongebob voice work fame...I threw that in there for the kids) and Richard Dreyfuss as the baddie.

The whole thing works because of the acting period. Obviously, the actors had a ton of fun doing this and that is confirmed by the 30 minute extra on behind the scenes. Also, the director is a genius. His dissolves to each location by slapping up a postcard be it of New Orleans or New York City and how the camera zooms in to the location within the postcard is way cool.

The extras also rock as there's a great animated CIA conspiracy history, commentary tracks with an ex-CIA operative on there as well as this Red trivia track you can fool around with.

FYI, the movie title does not stand for some Communist plot (although Brian Cox plays an ex-KGB agent) but stands for "Retired Extremely Dangerous."
