Smokin’ Good
Smokin’ Aces 2 – Assassins Ball is PJ Pesce’s (PJ who?) attempt at Tarantino. While PJ does not pull that one off (phew!), he does manage to put together a rockin’ good movie. Walter Weed (Tom Berenger) is a nondescript paper pusher in the FBI and the latter discover a bounty on his head – with a sell-by date. Led by the intrepid Agent Baker (Clayne Clawford), will the duo manage to keep out a set of remarkable assassins – The Tremor family, Tommy Flanagan (Lazlo Soot) and Martha Higareda (Ariella) among others? Be prepared for over-the-top stylized action sequences through this one... and what makes the movie somewhat above the mundane genre replicator, is the genuine effort to showcase the gradual unraveling of a background – why is there a bounty on the head of a desk clerk? More to it than meets the eye
13.5/20
