User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Slick and bloody action (plus John Cale & Alicia Keys)
This decent flick deserves at least 3 stars for the fast paced and bloody action. It is light, fun and does not seem to take itself too seriously. I gave it an additional star just for the use of John Cale’s Big White Cloud and the casting of the scrumptious Alicia Keys.
1 Stars A really bad movie
This is one of the worse movies I’ve seen in my life, to the point of making me leave the theater after its first thirty or so boring minutes.
Anyone who’s able to watch it entirely, should be rewarded for being really patient.
2 Stars Still R rated? = Avoid
Universal have yet again dropped the ball here. It’s all good and well releasing Smokin aces 2 in R and Unrated form, but how about the infinitely superior original? It suffered heavy cuts at the hands of the studio and the MPAA. Get with the programme Uni, this R rated edition is not worth the upgrade to HD unless you’re a slavish fan in need of sharper sound & image quality.
3 Stars Smokin Aces Blue-ray
I liked the movie, buy many have said it was far too violent, including some of my friends.

4 Stars Blu-ray took long enough
I’ve been waiting months for this to come out on blu-ray before buying it. Too many good actors to list; Jeremy Piven, Ryan Reynolds, and Ben Afleck all display the best acting of their careers. Plenty of violence of the assassin variety, don’t count on too many people living until the end.
