Guns Up (Kevin James)

Kevin James is back, but not in a way anyone asked for. His latest movie Guns Up 2025 tries to be John Wick with mob codes, diner dreams, and a lot of gunfire.

We watched it so you don’t have to, and in this episode of Adam Sandler Please Stop, we’re breaking down exactly why it fails. From the incoherent plot and lazy mob clichés, to Kevin James’s limp performance and Christina Ricci single-handedly saving the movie. We’ll talk about Edward Drake’s controversial writing during the WGA strike, Luis Guzmán’s phoned-in acting, the true meaning of “family night”, and why Kevin James is completely exposed when you strip away the comedy.

🎬 PLOT 🎬

Ray Hayes (Kevin James) is a former cop turned mob enforcer trying to leave the life behind to open a diner with his wife Alice (Christina Ricci). But when his mob “family” is taken over by Lonnie (a cigar-chomping villain with one eye), Ray is forced into one last bloody night. Along the way, we meet Irish Danny (the only good actor here), Luis Guzmán with a dagger cane, and a parade of henchmen who apparently don’t know how knives work.

By the end, Ricci’s character, not James, is the real hero, proving the movie should’ve been hers all along. It’s messy, boring, and destined for Tubi.
