...Charleton Heston and Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura--that more concealed weapons could have prevented violence in this and other school shootings--the shooting has shown us that handguns have no place in American society. The guns used in the shooting--sawed-off shotguns, a 9-millimeter and a carbine pistol--were not sold directly to the youths, but their easy availability is unacceptable.

Two servers in a mediocre sushi restaurant deal with the mounting stress of their disrespectful guests by diving from the kitchen with a pistol in each hand. The film doesn't take itself seriously at all, and the effect is delicious. The patrons of the restaurant are also heavily armed, and the ensuing shootout is a perfect satire of a mindless action movie...
