影評：
作為一個電影發燒友，應該不論電影的品質、題材、類型及產地，簡單說便是所有電影都不應該排斥。我很努力嘗試克服自己的心理障礙，大部分認識我的朋友都知道我有一種類型的電影是一定不會看的，答案在最後揭曉。很多身邊的人都會認為我對電影的熱愛比不上任何其他的東西，我無法否認，但只因我的生活很幸福而已。我來到台灣後，不敢說體驗了很多，但明白了自己算是幸福的一群，而且這次台灣的交換生活改變我很多的想法。言歸正傳，動作片是港產片的重要一環，偏偏我這個香港人不太喜愛看動作片，所以我認為我需要努力增進這方面的知識。這電影是荷里活式的動作片，而且加入喜劇元素，即時提升其吸引力，這是一個退休殺手重出江湖對付壞蛋的故事。Frank(Bruce Willis飾)是電影的主角，在與妻子Sarah(Mary Louise-Parker飾)過著悠閒生活時偶遇Marvin(John Malkovich飾)，三人其後被暗中追殺，他們的朋友Victoria(Helen Mirren飾)來電告知她收到任務要殺他們，同時殺手Han(李秉憲飾)也接到同樣的任務。他們三人接著趕到巴黎追查一宗案件，他們在途中遇到Katya(Catherine Zeta-Jones飾)，四人找到關鍵人物後便查到案件的幕後主腦是Dr. Bailey(Anthony Hopkins飾)。眾人追踪Bailey及炸彈的下落，Katya在過程中受偒死亡，Frank繼續找尋Bailey，最後Han也加入Frank的陣營，攜手剷除Bailey。Bailey綁架Sarah以威脅Frank同歸於盡，他以智慧把Bailey殺死，任務最後得到成功，Frank、Sarah和Marvin繼續這種刺激的生活。

Bruce Willis以參演電視劇開始他的事業，期間推出過歌曲，之後便轉型成為一名電影演員。不過他幾乎被定型為動作片或喜劇片的演員，他大部分的影片都屬於這兩類型的，著名作品包括Die Hard系列、The Expendables及Sin City等。他在電影的演出並不能以演技角度評論，因為電影沒有很大的要求，他只要動作到位已經足夠，因此他的表現不過不失。他的下一部推介是Sin City: A Dame to Kill for，這是一齣罪惡片，我也很想重溫第一集，續集應該可以吧。Mary Louise-Parker是一位多棲演員，電影電視舞台劇全都與她有關，她的成就也不容小覷。她的電影事業並無另外兩種表演藝術那樣出色，不過也奠定她的喜劇女星地位，演出作品有The Spiderwick Chronicles及RED。她在這電影的演出是不可多得的，雖然演出不算很精彩，但電影不能欠缺她這個角色。她的下一部推介是Jamesy Boy，這並不是一部喜劇，我也特別喜歡小型製作的劇情片，故事應該蠻有意思的。John Malkovich是電影製作人兼演員，很多演員都很尊敬他。他的演出經驗較為豐富，作品包括Places in the Heart、In the Line of Fire及Being John Malkovich等。他的喜劇演出非常好，雖然商業片的確對此類演出有很大的需要，選他來演絕對沒有錯，我很欣賞他的演出。他的下一部作品是Cesar Chavez，他的演出會有多大的影響要拭目以待。

電影既然打正商業片的旗號，當然音效動作情節鋪排等都很重要，但重點是吸引觀眾的興趣。電影的上集其實聽聞也不錯，今次加入新角色，而且票房理想，據說第三集成事非常高。今次我不用很專業的角度(其實也沒有很專業)去分析，因為娛樂性才是這電影的目的，固然演員的掌握不俗，視覺音響效果對位，故事情節也勉強可接受，但我看完也覺得娛樂性很豐富，那已經合乎期望。香港曾經按這路線走，但失敗的居多(例子：笑功震武林)，可能香港觀眾不太接受低級趣味，真正的喜劇泰斗才能改寫這種狀況。最後，我絕對不會看的是恐佈片，就連預告片都不會看，因為我很怕這類電影的內容，自我看過The Ring及The Omen後，我便不敢看恐佈片了。
