Our take
Guns Up follows a cop-turned-mob enforcer racing to extract his family after a job goes wrong. It is rated R for strong violence, language, and brief drug use. Kevin James leads a loud, bloody action comedy with criminal stakes and dark humor
Uplifting themes
Protecting family motivates the hero's exit plan
Story (may spoil tone)
When a job goes horribly wrong, an ex-cop and family man who moonlights as a mob henchman has one night to get his family out of the city.

Talk after watching
- Ray wants out of criminal work for his family. What makes it hard to leave bad situations?
- Violence is played for laughs and thrills. How does comedy change how kids read danger?
