Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
udar55 The fifth Andy Sidaris Molokai bullets 'n babes adventure really delivers the big guns as Sidaris hired Erik Estrada to be the villain in this one. Juan Degas (Estrada) hires two hit men to get rid of Nicole Justin (Roberta Vasquez), who just happens to be the new partner of series regular Donna (Dona Speir). It all revolves around a plot to run guns from China to Central America via Hawaii and a little bit of personal history between Degas and Donna. Man, I was crying about the loss of Hope Marie Carlton in my SAVAGE BEACH (1990) review above, but Sidaris kept things flowing and this is one of the best pictures in the series since MALIBU EXPRESS (1985). He really won me over by introducing Donna's mother and even flashing back to a random killing from HARD TICKET TO HAWAII (1987) in order to give Chuck McCann (as a Government agent/magician) some back story. He also played with my emotions by killing off series regular Rocky (Lisa London) early on. Other regulars returning include Bruce Penhall as C.I.A. dude Bruce Christian and Cynthia Brimhall as nightclub singer/agent Edy Stark (she belts out two songs). Also, muscular John Brown plays his third separate character and series heavy Rodrigo Obregon has a cameo as a cross dressing cop named Large Marge (!). In addition to Estrada, you also have B-movie vet George Cheung as an arms dealer and future B-movie legend Danny Trejo as Degas' right hand man. The film's biggest shocker might be that there is absolutely ZERO nudity for the first 27 minutes.
gridoon "Guns" is a strange movie: its sensibilities seem to be both sexist AND feminist. On the one hand, almost all the women have to undress at one point or another, usually gratuitously; on the other hand, the girls-with-guns sequences are played without condescension, the female agents are treated as equal partners by the men and, more often than not, THEY take charge. The action is not particularly well-done; in fact the whole film plays as if it was directed by a teenage boy trying to make a "real" movie. But how can you hate a film that contains female oil wrestling, an interrogation done with the help of a magic hat, a grenade on a remote-controlled model boat AND the incomparable Danny Trejo as the villain's No.1 henchman? (**1/2)
dfour34 Boy...does this director Sidaris like to blow s**t up-but he just ain't good at it. The special effects look like they were staged in a six year olds sandbox. But you get some sweet eye candy in ex-Playboy Bunnies Dona Speir and Roberta Vasquez-unfortunately, both have no concept to emoting. And, without a doubt, you get (maybe) THE worst line ever uttered in a low-budget actioneer:As bombs (or whatever) are blowing up around poor Dona she grabs some kind of plastic assault rifle and hollers at her male partner "Don't just do something...stand there!" and proceeds to shoot up the horizon. How can you not love it?***** stars out of 10-mainly for the luscious Ms. Vasquez. BOING!
mangraa2 I've sat through some s***. Skateboard Kid 1 and 2. Uncle Sam. They didn't even compare to this. Just.. dear lord. If you're a masochist, rent it/watch it at 1:30 a.m. on Cinemax. Horrible dialogue horribly delivered by horrible actors in horrible sets with horrible special effects.
