MACHO MOVIE FOR GUYS!

Ronin is this years number one machomovie.
Follow De Niro and Jean Reno through wild actionpacked carchases in the narrow streets of Paris. A group of 5 mercenaries whos servences is for sale to the highest bidder, is hired to steal a case which contains something valuable for a lot of mysterious people. The hunt for this case is what the movie is about. Ronin is a great actionmovie that never lets the viewer predict what is going to happen next. Ronin is very unpredictable, and has very good acting. Perhaps the best actionmovie since Die Hard. Robert De Niro is always great in every role, and Jean Reno fits his role too. You got to see those carchases. Ronin is a machofilm for guys, a real guyfilm. On the 1-6 scale, this is a 6
