The most leading and valued thespians like Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren and John Malkovich have together hands with the director for the movie. But there is nothing huge to boast about the tale of the film, which could have been improved.
The movie Red is an action-cum-comedy movie with a romantic touch. The spy-caper film is all about a retired CIA agent and his female love enchanting to the road after being under attack for death by a high-level government and business group. The film has all that an action flick requires and the director has good hold over the narration too. But the lack of novelty in the script makes it not so attractive. Additionally, the movie lacks twists and it has quite unsurprising storyline.
As the movie starts, retired black-ops agent Frank Moses (Bruce Willis) come out talking to Sarah (Mary-Louise Parker) of human resources department over phone about his retirement fund. The bored man flirts with her for a while. Instantaneously after his discussion, he is assault by a team of masked assassins, but he kills them all and run off from his house. Fright for Sarah's life, he kidnaps her. How he takes the assist of his former teammates Joe Matheson (Morgan Freeman), Marvin Boggs (John Malkovich) and Victoria (Dame Helen Mirren) to control the baddies will form the appealing action part of the film.
Bruce Willis is the showman and attracts with his action scenes. But Willis' moves in this film have been seen a hundred times before. As his lady love Sarah, Mary-Louise Parker remains a dumb viewer in many scenes. She has not anything much to act. She looks gorgeous. As links of Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich and Helen Mirren have done a superb performance. Karl Urban, Ernest Borgnine, Julian McMahon, Richard Dreyfuss, Brian Cox and James Remar have also done justice to their own roles.

The movie has been shot in Toronto metropolitan areas like Kansas and other cities and French quarter of New Orleans. Florian Ballhaus' camera work is amazing. The dialogues, which have got some slapstick comedian touch, are excellent. Christophe Beck's music is normal. Thom Noble's editing work is the stand-out.
In general, Red is boring action film. If you have fervor for old guys like Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman and Dame Helen Mirren, then don't miss to watch them in action scenes.
