here's what i posted on Tokyopia a while back:

Good jumping christ this was a blast. Too many amazing sequences to list (but all of them involve guns and most of them involve carrots). I think it's the best fun action film I've seen since Desperado (which they actually pay tribute to in the sex scene)*

I think the 'If You Want Blood' sequence is probably the most thrilling and appropriate and balls-out AWESOME use of a rock song in film ever. I'm a sucker for Bon Scott-era AC/DC of course so YMMV. If anyone can name a better one, I'd like to hear it.

*There was also a neat tribute (and a bit of one-upmanship) to the Bourne Identity too, with the stairs sequence...anyone catch any others? Can't wait to see this again to check...
