Verdict: ☆☆☆☆ –

Frank Moses (Bruce Willis) has got a lot to learn about women. Being the number one covert operative in the world throughout most of your career can have that sort of impact on one’s retirement, and Frank is feeling the heat from his now girlfriend Sarah (Mary-Louise Parker), who wants adventure more than ever now that she’s had a taste of it!

But Frank has other ideas in mind. He’s retired, and loves shopping at Costco, and buying things for their house… and generally playing Suzie Homemaker. This doesn’t strike well with Sarah, who flat out tells him their relationship is getting stale! Luckily for her (but not so lucky for the world), a Wiki document has leaked on the internet about an insanely nightmarish weapon, even worse than a nuclear device… portable, untraceable and Numero Uno on every arms dealer’s shopping list since the document leak.

Oh, did I mention the document referenced Frank and old buddy Marvin (John Malkovich) as involved in its origins? Suddenly the two of them are right smack in the US Government’s spotlight again, not to mention MI6.

Everything you enjoyed about the first movie, you’ll enjoy about this one. No one believes these “old people” still got it until they come face to face with ’em and find out that R etired E xtremely D angerous actually means something. With even cooler stunts, jet setting around the world in an unbelievably crazy quest to get to this mysterious device first, Frank’s gotten a little sloppy now that he’s been distracted by keeping Sarah safe and meeting ex-girlfriend agents from the old days, and his brothers/sisters in arms don’t mince words in making it known.

This was a fun flick, as action packed as the first one, with twists and turns as complex as Paris, London and Russian streets can provide! Heck, just watching Bruce Willis try and be romantic is hilarious in itself! You’ll find yourself jet setting and sipping wine and feeling for that gun under the cushion until the credits roll.
