Had no real expectations when I bought a ticket to see The Hitman's Bodyguard, other than it would be funny AF, typical Ryan Reynolds very funny action movie (see: R.I.P.D, Deadpool). So it can't be that bad.
- Gary Oldman makes for a really ridiculous dictator.
- The moment you see the Assistant Director's face, you know he the bad guy/mole liao.
- Salma Hayek plays a really good brassy Latina broad.
- At least Elodie Yung got to keep her French accent?
- Okay, them hitching a ride with the nuns is just very the 3 8.
- Does Samuel L. Jackson have a swearing requirement in his contracts?
- Did anyone else flashback to the movie 300 when he kicked Gary Oldman off the roof? Just me?
- The head count in this movie is pretty high up there, but probably not as high as both the John Wick movies combined.
- The close quarters hand-to-hand fight choreography in this movie is fun to watch.
If you want a movie you can check your brain at the door at and for the air conditioning, this is it. A bit run of the mill, but worth watching perhaps once. Don't bring the kids, though. For the love of Pete, I hope this is a one and done movie; I don't think I can stand a sequel... this is almost 2 hours long.
