Mean Guns is a 1997 action-thriller directed by Albert Pyun that revolves around a group of criminals who are brought together by their boss, Mr. Gunderson (played by Christopher Lambert), to play a deadly game. The movie begins with a group of criminals being herded into a prison where they are left to wait without knowing why they have been brought there. These criminals are from various criminal organizations and have been summoned to participate in a deadly game organized by their boss, Mr. Gunderson. Mr. Gunderson informs them that they have been chosen to participate because they are his most loyal employees and he wants to reward them with his empire.

Mr. Gunderson presents the criminals with a duffel bag full of guns and bullets and tells them that they have to eliminate each other until only one is left standing. The winner will receive $10 million in cash, but Mr. Gunderson warns them that there is a catch. The game is rigged with explosives and the only way to stop them from exploding is to kill each other. The remaining survivor will also have to face Mr. Gunderson's wrath, as he has a personal agenda for the game.

As the game begins, alliances are formed and broken, and the criminals face off against each other. Meanwhile, a hacker named Lou (played by Ice-T) is trying to figure out what's going on from the outside. He has been hired by Mr. Gunderson's rival and former business partner, Vincent Moon (played by Michael Halsey), to hack into Gunderson's computer network and get information on the game.

The game soon turns into a bloodbath as the criminals turn on each other, and Lou races against time to hack into Gunderson's system and stop the explosives from detonating. As the survivors reach the final stage of the game, they realize that Mr. Gunderson has a personal grudge against them, and he is not going to let anyone win the game.

The movie features some intense action scenes, including shootouts, fistfights, and car chases. The characters are gritty and realistic, with distinct personalities and motivations. Lambert's performance as Mr. Gunderson is chilling, and he plays the role of a cold-blooded gangster with ease.

Ice-T's character, Lou, provides a much-needed respite from the violence and adds a dash of humor to the movie. His witty one-liners and quirky personality make him one of the best characters in the film. Michael Halsey, who plays Vincent Moon, is also impressive, as he portrays the character of a suave and scheming businessman with ease.

The movie's soundtrack also deserves a special mention, as it features some iconic rock and rap songs that perfectly complement the action on-screen. The use of slow-motion shots and stylish camera angles also adds to the film's overall aesthetic.

In conclusion, Mean Guns is a classic action-thriller that is sure to please fans of the genre. It has all the elements of a great action movie, including intense action scenes, an intriguing plot, and memorable characters.
