Watching this stridently 'offbeat' film, one cannot help but feel that the approach is completely wrongheaded.

Keith Reddin’s adaptation of his own stageplay about gun control is curiously muted. Still, there are tangible pleasures to be found, mainly in the film's delightfully off-kilter pairings.

..guns take center stage as catalysts if not characters in their own right, not to mention conduits of sensuality, intimidation, foreplay and destiny.

It's the Rage is about guns and killing people and, essentially, it's a very funny movie.
