Gunpowder Milkshake is most entertaining when Laurent Demianoff’s fight choreography takes precedence over any dialogue.

With so many stellar talents in this film, most of them don't get to showcase their talents until the end.

The film is not just one of the best ACTION FILMS of 2021, but just flat out one of the most entertaining. It’s fantastic tone, vibrancy, blood/guts & of course all of the fantastic ladies here. Karen Gillian owns this film.

Gunpowder Milkshake is gorgeous, a whole lot of a fun, and the kind of action-packed female driven film that I hope serves as an example for more like it to follow.

Gunpowder Milkshake downplays a lot of the seriousness and narrative drive and uses violence inflicted on women to show the unfairness of the patriarchy.

Now that's some elegant twirling.

Gunpowder Milkshake is a film that offers a dazzling, fresh look at the female assassin while offering homages to its female assassin predecessors, Léon and La Femme Nikita.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 31, 2023

Slick, bold, and ultra-cool, Gunpowder Milkshake is an enthralling Avant-pop western that vaults Karen Gillan into the next generation of action stars.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 9, 2022

Brings refreshing energy and creativity to the action game.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 22, 2022

This thing is an absolute blast. And I recommend that anyone who likes violent dumb fun give it a look.

Gunpowder Milkshake is a brutal and empowering battle between the patriarchy and a matriarchal system of empathy and strength.

| Original Score: B- | Sep 10, 2022

There just isn’t enough story to sink your teeth into. Instead it puts all its money on its eye-catching action and some fun performances. Thankfully that’s enough to keep the film afloat.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 17, 2022

...moves at a blistering pace but contains little in the way of compelling, engaging elements...

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 19, 2022

By a considerable margin the purest drunk-on-cinema fun of any film released in 2021 up to this point

| Original Score: 8/10 | May 10, 2022

Thanks to stylish direction and strong performances, its really fun to watch in a way action comedies should be.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 3, 2022

Gunpowder Milkshake is an elaborate, potent action thriller that is not only visually appealing but also has a strong narrative, particularly when it comes to mother-daughter themes.

| Original Score: B | Feb 11, 2022

Far from being a great film... it is sustained thanks to its powerful female cast. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 15, 2021

There's a lot to enjoy here, not least fun performances from Gillan and Headey.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 5, 2021

The perfect complement to John Wick's testosteronic action.

To call this a stylised action film is to meet the filmmakers at a bar so low it is on the floor. Gunpowder Milkshake has no true style, instead it is an unpleasant cocktail of ideas and sensations in search of a story and energy.
