Our take on RED

Robert Schwentke's 2010 action comedy reunites retired CIA black-ops agent Frank Moses with his old crew after a squad of hit men tries to take him out. Frank pulls together steady Joe, unhinged Marvin and sly Victoria to unravel a sprawling conspiracy and strike back—an assignment that even leads them to break into CIA headquarters. The appeal lies in watching seasoned operatives who are officially 'retired, extremely dangerous' prove they've lost none of their edge, with the mayhem leavened by dry humour and easy camaraderie. It suits viewers who want action that doesn't take itself too seriously, built on veteran charm as much as gunfire. Brisk, funny and comfortably entertaining.
