Red Movie: Action-Comedy Starring Bruce Willis, Mary-Louise Parker and John Malkovich

Often youth associates with strength, courage and bravery, while oldness correlates to experience and wisdom. Youth can learn from older community, can respect and help them. And what if youth and seniors would fight to the death? What can embroil them with each other? By “Red” movie, film directors proved that youth and old men have the same values and there is still room for heroism, when it concerns whether to choose to help the truth triumph over the evil or to be tied to the chariot of dishonest people.
Firs of all “Red” is worth seeing due to super talented actors and characters they play in a movie. Superstars like Bruce Willis, Mary-Louise Parker, John Malkovich, Helen Mirren and Morgan Freeman met together to make a really good team in “Red”!
Frank Moses (Willis) is actually the “Red” - retired and extremely dangerous, who leads a lonely life of a former black-ops CIA agent. He finds a pleasure in chatting over a phone with a customer service agent Sarah (Parker). After a group of professionally trained assassins broke into his house to kill him, Frank realized he was a target and they wouldn't stop till eliminate it. As it turned out, he was one of a team, who new a secret he was chased for, thus in order to meet challenges a team should reunite again. So, Frank finds his mentor Joe Matheson (Freeman), then they go for paranoid Marvin (Malkovich) and choose Victoria's (Mirren) detached house for a stay. The team is up again and it's time for fun.
All in all, the plot is rather involving, but what makes this comedy really a top-notch one is the actors. Malkovich was the most entertaining, each time he appeared on a screen I couldn't stop laughing. Helen Mirren is a separate story. She was so nice and gentle it was hard to believe she was a first-rate black-op agent. This is exaggerated violence that makes Mirren a comic character, who fully compels viewers attention. Starring of Bruce Willis in any film implies availability of tremendous special effects. “Red” was not an exception. Unbelievable scenes, so explosive and impressive, and for all that Willis managed to survive (as usual).
One would say this is not the greatest movie ever, but it made me laugh a lot, so that it was hard to single out separate most comic episodes — the whole film was very positive and enjoyable.
