The crew is back and firing on all cylinders in this action-packed episode of We Reel Reels! This week, we are locking and loading to review the over-the-top, carrot-chomping, bullet-flying 2007 cult classic, Shoot 'Em Up.

Before we dive into the main event, we catch up on what the guys have been up to and look ahead at what's coming next down the pipeline. Then, Grizzly takes the mic for another edition of Grizzly’s Anime and Arms to break down the hit series The Fable. Next, things get a little wild during Panda Tales as Panda dives into the concept of "savior babies," followed by a classic Koala mix-up where she somehow manages to mistake peaceful missionaries for hardened mercenaries.

Then, at the 22-minute mark, we officially jump into the deep end for our full, chaotic review of Shoot 'Em Up before wrapping things up with our definitive final thoughts and our signature game of Movie 20 Questions. Grab your ammunition and your favorite veggie—it's time to ride!

When there's no more room in hell, the crew of WE REEL REELS locks themselves in a shopping mall. This month, we are breaking down Zack Snyder’s fast-paced, blood-soaked 2004 remake of the horror classic, Dawn of the Dead.

Before we dive into the zombie apocalypse, we catch up on what everyone has been up to over the last month. Then, Grizzly takes the mic to drop some tactical knowledge on the Franchi PA8 shotgun, followed by Panda stepping up for an intense edition of Panda Tales to inform us on the historic 1992 Korean rooftop defense during the LA riots.

When it comes to the movie, we’re keeping it reel: we share the perspectives of everyday people on the street, deliver the hard informational facts, and give our unfiltered final thoughts. Stick around until the very end to see who survives a competitive round of Movie 20 Questions!
