Watch Mean Guns For Free

Simply A Masterpiece

People are voting emotionally.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Mean Guns came out a couple of years before the script for Battle Royale was written and it seems to me the movies are TOO similar to be coincidence. I'm really surprized no one seems to have connected them! And then Battle Royale went on to inspire Kill Bill and more closely, The Hunger Games. The Hunger Games almost seems like a loose remake of Battle Royale. Anyway, without Mean Guns you might not have had the movie Battle Royale and without Battle Royale we wouldn't have the Hunger Games. Yea, I know the writer of the Hunger Games says she never heard of Battle Royal but few of us really believe that.

Just one quick correction - the other comment says that Ice-T plays Marcus, that's not the case. He plays the ring leader in this movie the role of Vincent Moon.This movie seems to be made from one of those ideas that a bunch of drunken friends all put together late one night at the bar. The premise sounds like fun, which is why I took a chance on it through my digital video on demand, and it is. Vincent - Ice-T - is one of 100 shady characters working for a group he calls "the syndicate." (How original right?) The syndicate has a grudge against all of them and so has given Vincent the go ahead on his plan to work it out.At the very beginning of the movie we learn about Moon's prison - apparently he backed it financially or something and he has the commissioner in his office in the prison. He kills him (not a spoiler since it happens in the first five minutes) and then basically has the prison to himself the day before it opens for inmates.The general plot is that 100 enter and only the strongest survive. They are all given weapons (guns, shotguns, baseball bats and anything else they can find to use in the finished and almost active prison) and they run around for 6 hours until only 3 are left. Those three win a prize and get to go free - those are the rules Ice-T (Moon) gives at the beginning.But the plot doesn't really matter. It's just an excuse for Ice-T to play a bad ass - and to watch people beat and blow each other away for two hours. They do try to mix in some interesting personal notes of the people that have betrayed the syndicate which does keep it interesting. Overall the movie's not one I'd watch with my wife, but if you're sitting around with a bunch of guys, or have a need to feel the testosterone pumping check it out and give it a whirl.

This is a really strange movie. While most brainless shooters have like build-up and background story and all stuff like that, this one just gets straight to the point. A planeload of guys are standing in a room, suddenly guns and bats come falling out of the air and everybody starts killing each other, and it never really stops. When you don't hear gun shots, you hear mambo music or something like that, but it soon gets interrupted with even more shooting. So, after a while, groups start forming and they start shooting some more, and then the last survivors get together in a room and in a clever twist they shoot at each other some more. Long story short, there's shooting. When it comes to movies revolving around guns, pseudo-tough guys and hot babes, this one outranks all others. Never was a movie so uncomplicated, so plain dumb and so suitable for the people who just want to see people get shot without that annoying thing called a plot. It isn't very good of course, but at least it's honest and it can't really be taken seriously.

If you're very fond of movies that don't mean a thing. Then this might just be the one. There is a lot of action and you don't have to keep your mind at the story, because, in my opinion, there isn't one. A perfect movie for a horrible stormy November evening, while you've got nothing else to do. just sit back and watch 100 criminals smashing each others heads with baseball bats, or trying to shoot-to-kill. Ice-T plays the roll of Marcus, a chief of the syndicate, and he needs to get rid of some lower-rank members of that same syndicate. His contempt of a hell's Angel look-alike is clearly visible when he says: "Then don't play." As a not-serious-movie, this one scores high on my personal list.
