Films like A Gun in Each Hand.

A Gun in Each Hand (2012) reads as Neutral, steady, gentle comedy / romance, grounded in texture. Ambivalent, intimate, measured. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
