Gunshy features two cool actors doing their usual stuff but ends prematurely with nothing much to say.
Michael Wincott's role is probably the biggest of his career because he usually gets a maximum of ten to fifteen minutes of
screen time. It's nice to get the William Petersen treatment which is the biggest reason for earning a rating of
'7' from me.
Diane Lane shows she still can't act and fails to develop chemistry with the two male leads which is why
the plot never got off to a flying start. Therefore, Gunshy is for the fans of Michael Wincott and William
Petersen. Somewhat, it can be reminiscent of Atlantic City with Burt Lancaster.
All in all, Gunshy could be better if the plot was developed more while replacing Diane Lane with somebody
more capable of acting.
