There’s not much in the way of story in “Shoot ‘em Up”: it’s pretty much Clive Owen running around a city with a variety of handguns (and carrots), killing people who apparently need killing while not once missing a beat. He’s like James Bond on speed, except broke. My favorite scene involves Owen — “You’re the angriest man in the world!” — using his stolen BMW to run a rich guy off the road for failing to use his turn signal. (And littering).
