Stemming from western films of past generations, the classic "shoot 'em up" film genre has grow so much in the last few decades. Our first film by John Wood, Hard Boiled, really shows the roots of the gun-centric action-packed films. Then we discuss a more 21st century take on the genre with James McAvoy's breakout action film Wanted. Also starring an always bad ass Angelina Jolie I must add. Enjoy!
