'2' guns

'2' guns, starring Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg was on my list of movies to watch on a Friday night when I was looking for a couple of hours of guns, explosions, bad guys and mindless action. This movie had all of that, and the real drawl was the "cool factor" of Washington and Wahlberg together. It was no Training Day, but it was good fun. The plot was unrealistic and stupid – everyone was corrupt, the DEA, the CIA and the NCIS. Since when does the Navy investigate drug trafficking? Washington and Wahlberg were actually the good guys, double-crossed by their bosses for millions of dollars that they stole from a bank as part of a undercover operation. The money was supposedly some kind of CIA slush fund gotten through deals with the drug cartels – sheesh! A weird and convoluted plot, but that didn't matter. All we needed was some really bad guys for Washington and Wahlberg to go against – it could've been anybody. Some of the dialogue was funny. Denzel Washington of course is the better actor, and still for my money, one of the coolest dudes around. Wahlberg, I usually don't like very much, but he did a decent job in this film. So, if you're in mood for a rental with lots of action, and a couple of cool dudes – check it out. If you don't expect too much realism, this movie should entertain you.
