Shoot Em Up (2007)-Tamil dubbed

Story Line:

The film opens as a drifter, known as Smith (Clive Owen), sits at a bus stop eating a carrot and drinking coffee when a pregnant woman busy going into labor passes by. Shortly after, a hitman pursues her and attempts to kill her in a warehouse. Smith manages to save her, but another bunch of assailants arrive on the scene and a shootout ensues. Showing almost no fear, Smith picks up a gun and proves that his weapon skills are second to none. During the conflict, the lady gives birth to a baby boy (later named Oliver) and Smith confronts the second in command Karl Hertz (Paul Giamatti), who praises him for his efforts and decides to "return the favor". While trying to escape having failed to subdue Hertz, the baby's mother is shot dead, which leads Smith to grab the boy and evade his would-be capturers. Hertz intends to get him soon enough.
A while later Smith again saves Oliver from an assassination attempt in a public park, after trying to leave him there in hopes of someone being able to adopt the boy. Realizing the baby is a prime target Smith takes Oliver to a mammary on tap (lactating brothel) to leave him there with Smith's mistress Donna (Monica Bellucci), but to no avail. Hertz arrives at the brothel a short while later and sadistically tortures her for information with the use of his gun. Smith intervenes and shoots him in the chest.
Smith and Donna begin investigating as to who wants to kill Oliver, after discovering a vital clue at a metal club and surviving yet another assassination attempt on their lives by a group of military foot soldiers while having sex in their motel room. Smith begins to cripple the competition by causing a shootout in the Hammerson Gun Factory, who just so happens to be Hertz's boss. After escaping and returning to Donna, Smith discovers that Senator Rutledge, who is dying of Bone Marrow Cancer and who also needs Oliver's bone marrow in hope of a donor can provide him with the necessary answer. While flying with Rutledge on a government plane, Smith uncovers Rutledge's perjury and holds him hostage. Hertz and Hammerson arrive and reveal to him that because Rutledge strongly supported gun control and as means of blackmail they killed the surrogate mothers so that Rutledge could negotiate a deal with them by dropping his defense in exchange for a living donor. With caution Smith moves to the fuselage of the aircraft, shoots Rutledge in the head and jumps off with the aid of a parachute. A few of Hertz's men follow and Smith kills them in mid-air. Go-To-Guy appears and tries to kill Smith, but ends up being carved up by an oncoming helicopter's propellers.
Smith awakens to find Hertz holding him at gunpoint and captures him. In the comfort of Hammerson's mansion, Hertz begins to torture Smith to tell him where Donna and Oliver are hiding, but Smith endures the pain. As a last effort, Hertz intends to carve out Smith's eyes with a scalpel, but Smith takes advantage of the situation and kills Hertz's men and Hammerson while defending himself. Seeing that Smith is incapable of using a firearm due to his broken fingers, Hertz laughs at his fruitless efforts and follows him into a library to finish him off. While trying to boost his confidence by asking Smith if he "was dead on" about who Smith was, Smith retorts by asking Hertz to repeat the last bit of the question. Hertz replies by saying:"I said I am Dead" to which Smith stops him and answers: "that part you got right" and severely wounds Hertz by lodging bullets in between his fingers, while holding it near an open fire and reacting to the heat gets shot into Hertz's chest. As a final standoff both Smith and Hertz draw guns and Smith finally kills Hertz and adds the statement: "What I really hate is a pussy with a gun in his hand."
Smith then boards a bus not knowing where both Donna and Oliver are. At an ice-cream parlor Smith sits at a table and hears Donna's voice. Turning around he sees Oliver in a baby chair and passionately reunites with Donna. The film ends as a group of robbers enter the store and a disgusted Smith stops them.
