This is a movie that had potential based on the plot and cast, but the execution falls short

Mean Guns (1997) is a movie that I recently watched for the first time in a long time on Tubi. The storyline follows a crime boss who invites one hundred individuals that are either his enemy or alliance to an abandoned building. Once there he locks them in, gives them weapons and has them fight to the death with the grand prize being a large sum of money. Will the crime boss survive himself or will one of the cast of character emerge victorious?This movie is directed by Albert Pyun (Cyborg) and stars Christopher Lambert (Highlander), Ice-T (New Jack City), Hoke Howell (Far and Away), Deborah Van Valkenburgh (The Warriors), Michael Halsey (The Last Witch Hunter) and Thom Mathews (The Return of the Living Dead).This cast was a lot of fun; unfortunately, the acting is kind of bad, mainly due to poor writing. The dialogue is a bit cheesy and the action scenes and one-liners are just okay. There were a couple good shootouts; but for the most part, they're average. I will say the hair on fire scene was hilarious. The storyline wasn't as good as it sounds. The concept was good but the execution has a made for television feel to it.Overall, this is a movie that had potential based on the plot and cast, but the execution falls short. I would score this a 5/10 but recommend seeing it once.

This movie in 2 colors: orange and blue!

This situation is fantastic. We have many action in genre "Comedy". Of course, we can see murders, shooting and other bad things, but ... it's funny. And Lambert in this role, he is another. Tony Riparetty did one main sound theme " Mamba" and it works. Bang, bang, bang - and this music as in the club.

Want to say one word "Funny"
