\"\u201cTakers\u201d<\/a>I\u2019m going to start a new section of my blog dedicated to my personal movie reviews and today I would like to start with the fast action, shoot-’em-up movie, \u201cTakers (2010)\u201d.\u00a0 http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1135084\/<\/a><\/p>\n

I couldn\u2019t tell you much about the plot itself because I quickly didn\u2019t care.\u00a0 Not really, I guess it wasn\u2019t that bad all-things-considered but I just don\u2019t care for testosterone-driven, mindless drivel in my movie plots.\u00a0 This movie wasn\u2019t that bad, honestly, but thankfully I was expecting anything noteworthy to enter my brain for long-term retention while watching this flick so I quickly moved any temporary immediate memories to the Kevin Neal mental junkyard never to be heard from again.<\/p>\n

It was full of rough looking dudes, with guns, hardcode music and lots of violence.\u00a0 It reminded me of a mix between the movie Heat (with armored car heist), Miami Vice (rolling through the streets at night in fancy cars), Scarface (go-out with guns-a blazing) and a few other macho films over the years.<\/p>\n

I liked that the movie \u201cwas what it was\u201d and it didn\u2019t pretend to be anything other than cheesy.\u00a0 All-in-all not a bad investment in 1 \u00bd hours of your life to be mindlessly entertained if you are so inclined.\u00a0 Also, the influence of all the manly movies I mentioned above was so strong that it nearly felt like I got to see 10 movies for the price of one.<\/p>\n

As this is my first movie review I\u2019m going to start my rating system by rating on a scale from 1 to 10.\u00a0 For this reason it will allow me more flexibility to give a movie the proper rating on a wider scale.\u00a0 Therefore, I can use full integers instead of fractions (even though algebra was one of my favorite classes in school).<\/p>\n

So here goes\u2026..my first official review rating of \u201cTakers\u201d (2010) is\u2026..drum roll please\u2026.5 Steelers Stars!<\/p>\n
