Or Gypsy having sex with a despicable killer to save the lives of those in her care, and then being shown to really, really enjoy it. Like a gun put to the head of a small dog. Every skeevy, repugnant idea that you don't want to see on the screen is here - and just when you think the imagery can't get worse, it does. The script is incomprehensibly bad, but what's most disturbing is that it's not just poorly constructed, it's poorly intended. It's heartless and makes no sense, nor do any of the choices made by any of the characters. When she discovers Sam hiding in her house after watching his family get slaughtered in front of his eyes, covered in blood, she lets him know that the killers are after him, too, and then tries to stick him on a bus with no supervision. One thing that's (sort of) original? Gypsy is a stripper who has to find her heart of gold. There's irony in the fact that a film that's ostensibly about redemption has no redeeming value. Take a look at the endless viewer bagging and begin to show them more respect, before losing them altogether. These cheap productions made by little-talented moviemakers, simply place a few well-known names in sub-standard material, then pad out scenes with boring pop songs and convoluted editing, substituting for any solid story, then foolishly expect audiences not to be appalled. No one comes off in any way well from this trashy entry. It’s also surprising Sam Worthington accepted this poor excuse for writing -unless of course, he didn’t bother to read the script- from here on, he now risks being labeled Sam Worthless.Ī scant story about a jaded stripper (dances to Silent Night, how jaded can you get!) taking the child victim of a gangland family murder on a road trip, to find someone to plant him with - is ludicrously fraught with grotty situations and swear-fest, ultra-cheap dialogue. ![]() It can’t get much worse than this movie re-tread of several other films, which at least, treated the now overly-familiar theme with more conviction. ![]() To stay in the loop on more movies like this, you can sign up for weeklyĪnother example of what it seems we can expect from wannabe moviemakers (Gigi Gaston) who looks like she grew up watching third-rate movies by trendy low-lives. There's a message about atonement and second chances here, but the script is beyond terrible, so it's unlikely to be meaningful. Gypsy constantly has a cigarette between her lips, and at one point the 11-year-old does, too. There's nudity in sexual situations, including a sultry striptease to a cherished Christmas carol. Guns are a constant, and people are blown away. Gypsy goes to the villain's house and has sex with him in a transactional way so that he won't kill the dog (a pistol is put to the dog's head). A child's family is murdered in front of him, and the assassins are unrelenting in their commitment to kill the boy, his dog, and the person trying to get him to safety. ![]() Parents need to know that 9 Bullets is an action crime thriller with religious elements (both Christian and Jewish) about a burlesque dancer named Gypsy ( Lena Headey) who goes on the run with her neighbor's 11-year-old son (Dean Scott Vazquez) in an effort to save his life.
