    Plot description:
    Shooters stars Andrew Howard as an ex-convict with a drug problem who lacks the skills to be anything other than a flim-flam man. He has gotten his friend Gilly into a tight spot by putting Gilly's money into gun-buying proposition. Soon the pair must tangle with a variety of nefarious types in order to get their lives straightened out. [Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide]

    Though set in London, "Shooters" deserves some credit for assembling its collection of devious lowlifes from more far-flung parts of the UK and beyond. Thus we find Adrian Dunbar's smooth Irish kingpin negotiating a drug deal with Gerard Butler's psychotic Glaswegian supplier, with a little help from assorted Welsh scumbags (Ioan Gruffudd, Jason Hughes, Matthew Rhys). Dunbar, meanwhile, has his eye on a henchman's wife - curiously played by Kiwi actress Melanie Lynskey, gamely grappling with an unlikely Cockney accent. Caught up in all of this is recently released ex-con Gilly (Dempsey) and his unhinged pal J (Howard), who hope to get rich while keeping one step ahead of the cops (represented here by the demure Emma Fielding). You will not be surprised to learn that it ends in an orgy of bloodshed, and a betrayal lifted straight from the "Reservoir Dogs" manual of predictable plot developments. [Neil Smith, BBC]
