The Hitman’s Bodyguard

A very good time at the movies

It’s a funny movie. Not as laugh out loud as I thought the combo of Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L Jackson would be on the screen, but it was fun watching them interact.

It’s another Jackson pic that he seems to have done because the title was cool, like Snakes on a Plane. Give the Hit-man’s Bodyguard more credit as it does read like a great action comedy. After all, why would a hit man need a body guard? It was fun to find out the answer.

The action was pretty good and Jackson and Reynolds seem flawless in it, but honesty never felt the chemistry between the both of them. Sam would feed a line to Ryan and he would hit the ball but at best they got on the score board. No home run.

The action in the action comedy was real nice. Whoever coordinated it did so smoothly. I loved it. It was more comedy than action, however. They had some great car chases and fight scenes, but they could have used more.

My favorite scenes was anyone in which Salma Heyek was a part of it. Those were the funniest parts.

And overall a good popcorn eating flick with the lovely Salmea Heyek in it. Lots of fun, but I was expecting more from this buddy team up. Maybe the body guard parody poster and trailers though me off.
