A gun trade goes hilariously wrong in this ‘70s-set, one-room, guns-a-blazing comedy from director Ben Wheatley (High-Rise). Executive-produced by Martin Scorsese.
Massachusetts, late '70s. Justine (Oscar-winner Brie Larson) has brokered a meeting in a deserted warehouse between two Irishmen (Cillian Murphy, Michael Smiley) and a gang led by Vernon (Sharlto Copley) and Ord (Armie Hammer) who are selling them a stash of guns. But when shots are fired in the handover, a heart stopping game of survival ensues. Produced by our lord and saviour Martin Scorsese.

"Crosses the irreverent cheekiness of Quentin Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs" with the ruthless spirit of 1970s B-movies..."

Variety
Variety"Loud, ripe, violent, bloody and blackly funny, Free Fire cocks its gun right in your face. See it – and bring earplugs."
—
Total Film
Total Film"Ben Wheatley shouldn't settle for becoming the next Guy Ritchie. For some reason, he'd like to."
—
Time Out
Time Out"Far more than his previous films, which tend to unfold in a dream-like daze, Free Fire is a mad contraption, bristling with bravado and black, sardonic wit."
—
The Telegraph
The Telegraph"A smug knockoff of Quentin Tarantino's brand of ironic violence, at several degenerations' remove."
—
The New Yorker
The New Yorker"Mr. Wheatley's "High-Rise" was a highlight of 2016, and again he shows that he's a technically virtuosic director whose humour has a bracingly nasty side. He's also no dummy."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"Part of the fun is the highwire act as the filmmakers try to outwit or outrun expectations..."
—
Sydney Morning Herald
Sydney Morning Herald""Free Fire" is not Wheatley's best film, but it is a rollicking good time and, more important, an inadvertent skeleton key to thinking about and understanding the rest of his films."
—
Los Angeles Times
Los Angeles Times"Alas, for all its stellar talent, Free Fire is a scattershot exercise in genre homage that ultimately misses the target."
—
Hollywood Reporter
Hollywood Reporter"This is seriously cool, stuffed with great dialogue and riddled with bullets."
