Red is a goofball lament. It's saying that in the good old days, or at least in the good old movie days, our killers were good-time guys.

Beneath its light exterior is not only a neat, if unsubtle, political undercurrent but a rebellious streak about how the allure of firing an RPG outweighs the prospect of retirement.

Much of the enjoyment comes from seeing these respected thespians so thoroughly embody cartoon characters; it's like Sidney Lumet directing Space Jam.

What really works for Red is our shared history with the actors involved.
