The Hitman's Bodyguard - 殺手保鑣
The Hitman's Bodyguard (殺手保鑣) is an 2017 film. The movie stars Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson. The supporting cast include Élodie Yung, Gary Oldman, and Salma Hayek.
Ryan Reynolds plays a triple certified bodyguard, Michael Bryce. Samuel L. Jackson plays Darius Kincaid, the world's most well known assassin. Kincaid is captured one day and agrees to testify against a warlord for a reduced sentence for his wife. Along the way, the warlord's inside people get to Kincaid, but he escapes and Bryce is enlisted to bring him to the trial or the warlord goes free due to no witnesses. Let the fun begin as they have to go through Europe to get Kincaid to the trial court and the warlord's men are very resourceful and keep finding them.
This movie was made for Ryan Reynolds. Deadpool without the super powers. The addition of Samuel L. Jackson shakes up the formula a little, but not by much. If you like Reynolds and his movies, you will most likely enjoy this one too.
