Review of Guido

Guido (2011)
9/10
A fun movie
7 October 2013
This movie is fun. The best part about it is it's not afraid to be an action movie. It reminded me of the old 80s early 90s action films like "Comanndo" and "The Last Boy Scout" Modern action is so serious it was nice to watch a film that knew it was an action film and not some uber serious anti-hero nonsense. The plot involves an Iraqi hit man named Guido who gets conned into taking his dying Landlady out west. Further complicating matters is the fact that he needs to transport a dead body as well. Of course the mob goes after him, and he must kill them in the most outrageous ways imaginable. This is what I enjoyed most. Yes the premise is ridiculous, but it's ridiculous in the most entertaining way and for me that is what action movies are all about!
