Seeing “RED”

Action-packed and extremely
funny, “Red” recently took
the no. 2 slot in the box office
and has grossed over $21.7
million.
Starring celebrities Bruce
Willis, John Malkovich,
Morgan Freeman, Mary-
Louise Parker, and Helen
Mirren, this movie was bound
to be a blockbuster from the
start.
Based on the D.C Comic,
“Red” is about ex-CIA agents
who, one-by-one, are being
taken out by the very agency
they once worked for.
Bruce Willis plays Frank
Moses, one of the CIA’s top
agents of all time, an intelligent
and very dangerous man.
Moses is forced to come out
of retirement to save not only
himself, but the girl who he
likes.
Sarah, played by Mary-
Louise Parker, is a customer
service agent working for
Frank’s pension office in
Kansas City.
Moses quickly realizes who
is after him and knows what to
do right from the start.
However, he cannot do it on
his own.
He travels all around the
country looking for his partners
from back in the day for
help.
Malkovich plays the hilarious
Melvin, another former ex-
CIA agent, who is paranoid
about everyone and everything
thinking that the government is
after him. He was given a daily
dose of LSD for 11 years. So it
is understandable for him to
think that way.
Morgan Freeman plays Joe,
Frank’s first mentor. Joe is living
in a retirement community
and terminally ill with stage
four cancer. But without Joe,
Frank would have an even
tougher time trying to figure
out why the CIA is coming
after him.
After looking for more help,
Frank and Sarah find Victoria,
played by Helen Mirren.
Victoria misses her old life as
an agent and joins the team as
well. She is an experienced
sniper and helps the team with
all the getaways that they come
across.
The explosions go non-stop
in this great movie and will
entertain you throughout the
film. The major twist in this
movie will surprise
you.
However, the
story of the movie
can be a little confusing
if you don’t
pay attention
throughout the
entire movie.
If you miss one
minute of this
movie you can
easily be lost for
the rest of the
movie.
But the effects,
action and hilarious
lines in this
movie will keep
you on the edge of
your seat until the
final credits. Make sure you
don’t leave until after the credits
are completely done.
With some serious gunfights
and just as many laughs “Red”
movie is an absolute must-see.
