When I sat down to watch the 1990 movie "Guns" from writer and director Andy Sidaris, I must admit that I wasn't really expecting the movie to be a groundbreaking action movie, especially since the last handful of movies of his that I've watched pretty much has been of the same formula.
But since I do believe in giving a movie a fair chance, and since I hadn't already seen "Guns", of course I opted to sit down and watch it.
And I have to say that "Guns" was pretty much as I had anticipated, and it does follow the blueprint that writer and director Andy Sidaris has been using over and over for his movie, for better or worse. I am not saying that it is a bad movie, actually it was watchable and enjoyable enough for the cheesy action that it was. And since writer and director Andy Sidaris is following the same formula, then you know what you're in for here.
The acting performances in "Guns" were actually alright, and it was fun to see the likes of Erik Estrada, Danny Trejo and George Cheung in this 1990s action movie. And of course it was also nice to have returning cast members back for reprising their roles from previous movies, as it does add a sense of continuity to the movies.
Ultimately, then "Guns" is a straight forward, albeit somewhat generic, cheesy action movie that writer and director Andy Sidaris had a tendency of doing.
My rating of "Guns" lands on a five out of ten stars.
