With all that being said, there are moments of bloody fun that can be enjoyed. There's a middle portion of the movie that gave me hope the film had transformed. At one point, Sam is indisposed and unable to use her arms, which dangle without any muscle control. She's about to be beset by angry if bruised bad guys and must plan what to do. The resulting clash is a burst of creative choreography and an excellent demonstration of Sam's resourcefulness and drive. Watching her dispatch a dozen armed men so indifferently, always knowing where and when to turn and dodge is not nearly as entertaining or engaging as watching her struggle and solve a problem. This sequence is extended and makes clever use of its location and the elements that would be available. Then we go a step further, as Sam and her youngster must drive a car to flee except the uncontrollable arm problem persists. Sam will pump the pedals and give directions while Emily sits on her lap and turns the steering wheel. This made me excited. We had organic complications and potential solutions that involved both characters having to rely upon one another. That is solid screenwriting and finding a way to spice up an ordinary parking garage chase sequence. By the end of this sequence, my hopes started to dwindle because Sam reverted to her earlier super cool, impervious version. She knew every exact move to make, and the small-scale car chase started losing my interest even with the extra driving dynamic. I wish the filmmakers could analyze how these sequences differed to better harness that creative surge. Fleming, Mike Jr. (April 30, 2021). "Franchise Fever!

Amid all of the action is the message that having compassion can prevent you from hurting others and lead you toward a more courageous path. Also, it takes courage to protect others, even if it means putting yourself at risk. And protecting what's important can take teamwork with like-minded people.

Lots of killing, including via exaggerated gun violence, decapitation, stabbings, grenade/car explosions, and hand-to-hand combat. Violence also includes breaking bones and dislocated body parts, a person being tased, gunshots, and a knife cut to the cheek. A moment of body horror includes Sam stitching up a wound on her arm.

Do they redeem a bizarre ending that unnecessarily absolves Sam of any wrongdoing, but of course leaves open room for a sequel? They do not. But when Gunpowder Milkshake has so few successes, Headey’s half-smirk, Bassett’s exasperated line deliveries, Gugino’s set jaw as she steps behind a mounted machine gun, and Yeoh’s effortlessly cool eyepatch-wearing will have to do.
