Retired CIA agent Frank Moses is in love with Sarah Ross and enjoying their normal life. Out of the blue, Marvin Boggs meets Frank in the supermarket and tells that Wikileaks has released the information that they had participated and know the whereabouts of the Nightshade, a portable nuclear weapon that was smuggled in pieces and hidden in Russia. Now the top agents in the world are under contract to seek them out to discover where Nightshade is. The trio travels to Paris and teams-up with the Russian Katja to track down the former Russian Agent 'The Frog' to get more information about the operation. They learn that the brilliant inventor Dr. Edward Bailey might know where the weapon is. They discover that Bailey has been interned in an asylum in London by the MI-6 for thirty-two years and the British Victoria joins the team. They rescue Bailey and find that the nuclear device is hidden in the Kremlin. Soon the dangerous South Korean Han joins the group expecting to retrieve the weapon. But dangerous killer Jack Horton is hunting Frank down and will not stop until he recovers the nuclear bomb. Retired C.I.A. Agent Frank Moses reunites his unlikely team of elite operatives for a global quest to track down a missing portable nuclear device. Defying conventional Hollywood logic, 'Red' (or short for 'Retired: Extremely Dangerous') cast a bunch of actors all above the age of 50 as aging spies forced back into action when their lives are threatened by the very agencies they used to serve. And yet, Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich and Helen Mirren turned the 2010 risky high- concept movie into a sleeper hit, thanks to a firm tongue-in-cheek sensibility that emphasised the actors' ages as much as it did the action.<br/><br/>And along with Mary-Louise Parker as Willis' earlier squeeze and Brian Cox as Mirren's former love, Willis, Malkovich and Mirren are back for yet another geezers-with-guns action adventure. Even better, the cast list includes the likes of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Anthony Hopkins, the former playing a Russian double agent who used to have the hots for Willis and the latter a daffy Cold War-era nuclear scientist that may or may not have the answers to their latest embroilment into international espionage.<br/><br/>'Red 2' is one of those sequels which rewards fans of the original, especially since returning scriptwriters Jon and Erich Hoeber pick up with Frank Moses (Willis) and Sarah (Parker) having settled down into a quiet and routine coupled life. But as 'Red' amply demonstrated, the former telephone operator craves for a life of excitement more than the CIA retiree, and so when Frank's paranoid former partner Marvin Boggs (Malkovich) turns up with yet another conspiracy theory about a Cold War weapons project named Nightshade that just got hot, Sarah jumps at the chance at getting back into action with Frank.<br/><br/>Though initially reluctant, Frank is once again back to doing what he does best when a murderous Pentagon special agent named Jack Horton (Neal McDonough in yet another icy arrogant villainous role) threatens his and Sarah's life. A surprisingly twisty plot ensues around the madcap vignettes that make up the rest of the movie, with Frank's former MI^ British counterpart Victoria (Mirren) sent to take Frank and Marvin out and ruthless South Korean contract killer Han (Lee Byung-Hun) recruited by Jack for exactly the same task.<br/><br/>To the Hoebers' credit, at no point does the busy plot ever come off throwaway, despite of course being the narrative glue for the various globe-trotting setpieces that see our heroes go from Paris to London to Moscow. Every city introduces a new piece of the puzzle, which ultimately proves cleverer than one expects it to be. Ditto for the bevy of characters, each of them with their own distinct quirks to add flavour to the entire package. Yes, though it's inevitable that some get more screen time than others, every role seems specifically tailored to the actor's strengths - whether Zeta-Jones' sultry old flame Katja or David Thewlis' information dealer 'The Frog' or Hopkins' shifty scientist Edward Bailey with a questionable case of amnesia.<br/><br/>Certainly, the ensemble cast contribute in no small measure to the roster of sprightly characters. Each and every one seem to relish not only the opportunity to work together, but also the chance to play against age and type. Willis keeps his cheeky wink-wink grin throughout, perhaps even more so now that he gets to romance not one but two beautiful ladies at the same time. Malkovich and Parker get some particularly hilarious scenes together, in particular one in which the former is seen alternately exasperated and terrified at the latter's sheer aggressive driving skills trying to outchase Zeta-Jones at capturing 'The Frog' down the streets of Paris. Mirren is once again a standout, absolutely regal portraying a woman with class and steeliness; while Hopkins is perfect as the inscrutably bumbling scientist with more up his sleeve. It's any director's dream come true to have such an impeccable cast, even more so when everyone knows exactly what the material expects of him or her.<br/><br/>In that coveted position is Dean Parisot, who takes over from Robert Schwentke by retaining much of the former film's mix of wry humour and over-the-top action. Obviously benefiting from a larger budget no doubt because of the success of its predecessor, Parisot amplifies the action to more ludicrous heights, with plenty of shootouts, car chases, bomb explosions and Mirren shooting pistols in two directions simultaneously from inside a spinning car. This is the kind of overblown action that characterised the high-octane baby-boomer action comedies of the 80s and 90s, and we suspect that the older audience that this is skewed towards will indeed be having a blast.<br/><br/>But really, with such a game cast of veterans, it's hard to resist throwing all caution and credibility out the window to simply revel in the kind of cartoonish live-action Hollywood was built and marketed on. Even though what was fresh the first time round feels a bit more familiar now, there is still much fun to be had in the banter and bullets. If summer popcorn fare is built on escapism, then the reunion of 'Really Entertaining Dudes' is just that sort of entertainment.

A government group allowed to torture anyone sets out to find Willis. Then his other old friends are hired to kill him; Byling Hun Lee, and ' pistol packing mama ' Hellen Miren.<br/><br/>With assassins hot on his trail, Bruce sets out to find the one scientist Anthony Hopkins who can unravel the mystery of Nightshade and help them save themselves – and the world.<br/><br/>Anthony Hopkins is his excellent self in his role, along with a few surprises. While Bruce Willis, John Malkovich, Helen Mirren, et al. are still good for a few chuckles as a gang of superannuated government assassins, this globe-trotting action-comedy diversion applies a bigger-is-better philosophy across the board, upping the stakes, the firepower and the travel budget, but keeping real thrills and laughs at a modest trickle. Ex-black ops CIA agents Frank Moses (<a href="/name/nm0000246/">Bruce Willis</a>) and Marvin Boggs (<a href="/name/nm0000518/">John Malkovich</a>) , now considered RED (Retired, Extremely Dangerous), reunite with retired MI6 sharpshooter Victoria Winsler (<a href="/name/nm0000545/">Helen Mirren</a>) to track down Nightshade, a portable nuclear weapon smuggled in pieces and hidden in the Russian Kremlin by physicist Edward Bailey (<a href="/name/nm0000164/">Anthony Hopkins</a>), whom MI6 has kept incarcerated in a London asylum for the past 32 years. Aided by Frank's girlfriend Sarah (<a href="/name/nm0000571/">Mary-Louise Parker</a>) and Russian secret agent Katja Petrocovich (<a href="/name/nm0001876/">Catherine Zeta-Jones</a>), the five attempt to retrieve the Nightshade device while dodging South Korean contract killer Han Cho Bai (<a href="/name/nm0496932/">Byung-Hun Lee</a>) and Pentagon agent Jack Horton (<a href="/name/nm0568180/">Neal McDonough</a>). RED 2 is the sequel to <a href="/title/tt1245526/">RED (2010)</a> (2010), which is based on a comic book written by Warren Ellis and illustrated by Cully Hamner. The screenplay for RED 2 was written by screenwriter brothers Jon and Erich Hoeber. Marvin fires the AK at general area of the helicopter (notice that he doesn't really aim down the sights, he isn't trying to shoot it down or damage it) so it would retreat and get outside the explosion radius. He's making them run away so they survive the incoming explosion. Carrying the activated Nightshade bomb, Frank boards the plane where Bailey is holding Sarah hostage. Bailey releases Sarah but orders Frank to get off the plane and take the bomb with him. Frank complies and joins Marvin, Victoria, and Han on the tarmac. As Bailey's plane takes off, they await the explosion of the bomb. With only four seconds left, Bailey discovers that the bomb has been hidden on his plane, and the plane goes up in a massive explosion. Frank reveals the empty bomb casing, indicating that he planted the bomb on the plane sometime before he faced Bailey. Incensed at losing his plane, Han says that Frank owes him $30 million for the plane and $20 million for not killing him. While walking away with Sarah, Frank replies, "All right". In the final scene, Sarah is shown jazzing it up on a mission in Caracas while Frank and Marvin (in drag) watch. a5c7b9f00b malayalam movie download The Alamo: Thirteen Days to GloryThe Amazing Race Philippines full movie download in hindiThe Last of the Mohicans full movie hd 1080p download kickass movieThe Tortured full movie in hindi free download mp4Bungou Stray Dogs movie free download in hindiDownload the Past Impulse full movie tamil dubbed in torrentThe Note full movie online freeEpisode 1.58 in tamil pdf downloadQuantez in hindi free downloadGhost Family movie in hindi free download
