Who wouldn't like a movie where Bruce Willis is a rogue ex-black ops agent who enlists old friends like Morgan Freeman, John Malcovitch and Helen Mirren while Mary Louise Parker hangs on his arm in wide disbelief while they fight with the bad guys? Did I mention that Helen Mirren wears combat boots?! This was more like a roller coater ride than a movie and I loved every minute of it. Willis plays a retired agent who is targeted for assassination, but his character could be anyone of his well known Die Hard type characters. The difference is that this time, these characters are "seniors" and have retired from "the life" until Willis asks for help. Not only do these "seniors" kick ass, they do it with style, grace and humor. It isn't the best film, nor the prettiest or and other superlative, but it was fun and a great romp and entertaining as hell and that should mean something.
