Free Fire

Dateline Boston 1978, two gangs meet in a warehouse for an arms sale of automatic weapons; but, with tensions high the deal goes sideways, lines are drawn and bullets are sprayed, who will walk out of this warehouse alive remains to be seen.Directed by Ben Wheatley this dark comedic thriller leverages thin plot into maximum impact for an adventurous 90 minutes with a solid gold ensemble that includes Sharlto Copley, Brie Larson, Armie Hammer, and Cillian Murphy. Sharp tongued dialogue from Writers Amy Jump and Ben Wheatley also go the extra mile in delivering the goods and perhaps an award should go to the film for best use of ironic John Denver music. Fun to the last drip drop, Free Fire is rated R.
