2 of my fav actors in 1 movie. I've seen this movie at least 10 times and only certain movies I can watch more then once. This movie is amazing and lots of clever jokes and both Mark and Denzel play cool funny characters.

'2 Guns' is a middling comedy/action buddy cop movie that's already been done a million times before, and in many cases a lot better. It's the type of film that you watch passively, without caring much for any of what happens, and then forget that you even watched it come the next day. It's moderately entertaining though, with some well-crafted action scenes and the odd decent laugh, but nothing to make you sit up and take notice.This film could have been a lot worse if it wasn't for Wahlberg and Washington's on screen chemistry. In many ways their entertaining partnership distracts us from the generic material and plot and is one of the film's few positives. Other than that, '2 Guns' is a very average and instantly forgettable action flick. A decent time passer, but nothing more.

2 Guns is breezy, slight, casually R rated popcorn fun, with a script that tries so hard to churn out quirky hysterics that it often stumbles on itself, rambles and at times is plain weird, but it's all good because when it's fun, it's great fun. Denzel and Marky Mark are trying on the buddy banter for size here, and they're both pretty serviceable at it, plus have decent chemistry, they're just a bit too relaxed at times it seems. Like, what person would *still* be making wisecracks when they are literally inches away from certain death at the horns of a stampeding bull? It's no matter though, for such things are the hallmark of action comedies, and the fluff does get balanced out by the R rating, which is nice to see and not to be taken for granted these days. The plot is all over the place and mainly acts as a playground of sorts for them to prance around in and get on each other's nerves, as well as that of multiple varied and colourful antagonists. The both of them are undercover law enforcement, Denzel a DEA hotshot and Marky an NCIS type dude, or maybe it's the other way around, I cent really remember. Anywho, they get involved in everyone from a crusty Mexican mafioso (Edward James Olmos) to a corrupt ex CIA agent played by a wild eyed Bill Paxton, in top sadistic form. There's also Denzel's luscious colleague (Paula Parton), his shark of a boss (Robert John Burke), and a few shady Navy pricks (Fred Ward and James Marsden) all thrown together in a messy, lovable piñata of a plot line that doesn't take itself too seriously, but rather ambles along to match the cavalier pace and attitude of every character in the film. The only player who conveys actual potent menace or rises above the leisurely cadence is Paxton, whose villain is pretty darn terrifying, especially when he breaks out his own patented and much more effective method of playing Russian roulette. Wahlberg and Washington are clearly having fun and they're quite enjoyable to spend time with, it's just that there's nothing particularly bold or original here, despite being a heckin good time in genre-ville.

Well, this movie, I was wondering how I managed to miss it when it came out. Story-wise it's OK, but the mixture of Walhberg and Washington was amazing! The acting was really good and the two types of characters they embodied were really entertaining. This is a fun movie, packed with action and nice lines. The back and forth between the two protagonists was delightful each time they talked to each other. The duration was OK and the final outcome of the movie was also as fun as hell. I don't know but it seems that there are some movies that are just unproblematic, fun to watch and straightforward. And this is one of the top movies in this category. Definitely worth your time.
