Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg’s Action-Packed Adaptation Lost What Made the Comic Great

Okay, so 2 Guns actually sticks pretty close to the comic it’s based on, which is good. But honestly, the movie just goes way over the top with everything. They cranked up the action and the jokes to eleven, trying to make this huge blockbuster. And in doing so, they totally missed what made the comic great: that really sad, but funny, feeling of a messed-up system that just destroys itself. It was smart and ironic in the comic, but the movie just feels…loud.
