Review of Gun Shy

Gun Shy (2000)
5/10
A Bit Boring
21 October 2007
Reviews on Gun Shy might be slightly misleading to me especially people with the same movie taste with me, as I don't think Gun Shy should get full stars or marks. I think it was just an okay film with lots of up and down moments. What I mean with that is it was not a gripping film from start to end.(Gives opportunity to people who likes to doze off in movies)

Gun Shy tells us the story of an undercover DEA AGENT(Liam Neeson)who is almost killed by gangsters. He only wants to retire but reluctantly accepts a final job. Being stressed up he starts therapy and he also meets with a quirky nurse(Sandra Bullock)whom he falls for in another treatment.Meanwhile, his final case brings him into contact with Fulvio Nesstra(Oliver Platt)an insanely violent mobster with a surprisingly tender side. Fulvio's secret passion is his failing tomato garden.

Liam Neeson and most of the cast look uncomfortable and lost in their roles. I only found Sandra Bullock better than the rest only in terms of acting not producing part.Contains frequent strong language, scenes of a sexual nature and some strong violence. ** out of *****
