The Hitman's Bodyguard is a love it or hate it affair. I don't
know either the Director or the Writer, but it's clear they are
drawing from their favorite action adventure films from the past
and the movie does come off as a bit cliched. It's a been there,
done that movie. So most are going to criticized the film for
that reason alone. I on the other hand found the movie to be
very entertaining from start to finish. The one thing I think
this improves on in the "cliche" department is just how much
humor is interjected into it. This is not a comedy, but it's
damn funny and that's in large part to the chemistry between
Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson who play off each other to
perfection. Watching Hitman's Bodyguard, I was noticing a
handful of mini reunion's throughout. Sam Jackson and Gary
Oldman in particular. It only took 25 years, but Sam exacted his
revenge on "Drexl". The other "reunion" of sorts was Salma Hayek
and Joaquim de Almeida, although they never share screen time in
this one. Anyway, yeah, highly recommend checking out this
movie. Glad to hear there is a sequel in the works.
September 11...y Bday movie. ;D
