RED has a great cast, a reasonably straight-forward, but unpredictable and interesting storyline and a sufficient amount of action.
It has all the right ingredients with regard to classic/quality movie-making... and is a perfect example of when the seemingly harmless but humble and wise elderly show the young guns of the new skool how it's done and what happens when they really decide to show or display their definitions of crazy.
To me Bruce Willlis, John Malkovich, Helen Mirren and Morgan Freeman are synonymous with action, insanity, mature English (with class) and wisdom, respectively. (And you can just think of each of them as an all-loving and harmless parent being nice to thier children all their lives... until one day when they drop a bomb and flip and show the child just how extremely knowledgable and really experienced they are)
It's such a pity that I saw Equalizer 2 before this movie.
If you loved 'Last Vegas', even if it is a comedy with no action, etc., then you'll also love this movie.
