Review of Red (2013) by Caleb E — 26 Jan 2019
Bruce Willis is in his classic form in Red, plays it cool as a former "agent". The ensemble cast is enjoyable at moments and really plays together nicely, but I feel like there were just too many convenient characters/scenarios.
Why in movies like this is there ALWAYS an answer, they always knew a "person" who can help them? I understand they did a good job tying every character together, but it almost seemed like there was NO scenario they couldn't get out of. Which, I also understand, is part of the enjoyment of the film, but after so many aha moments, it sort of becomes a cliche.
I ultimately enjoyed the movie but felt like there needed to be more stressful scenarios.
