Hitman’s Bodyguard gets great reviews

“The Hitman’s Bodyguard” -the most talked-about movie came out this past weekend, which is an American action comedy film directed by Patrick Hughes and written by Tom O’Connor, has three leading stars:

  • Samuel Jackson as Darius Kincaid, who is one of the world’s notorious hitman’s and Sonia’s husband
  • Salma Hayek as Sonia Kincaid, Darius wife
  • Ryan Reynolds as Michael Bryce, a rated protection agent who becomes close to Darius later in the film.

The main plot is how a bodyguard is hired to protect a hitman who has to testify at the International Court of Justice.

The film starts with a dealer being shot in the head unexpectedly, where Michael was just hired to protect a Japanese arm dealer.

Throughout the film, Bryce teams up with Darius Kincaid, who agrees to testify against Gary Oldmanas Vladislav Dukhovich in exchange to bail out his wife Sonia, who is incarcerated.

Consequently, as Michael and Darius start developing a friendship, Michael finds out a shocking secret about Darius and he feels betrayed.

The film made $21 million on the first release date and received mixed reviews from different critics who appraised Reynolds and Jackson’s chemistry, while some critics felt the plot was cliche.

The Hitman’s Bodyguard is a must-see movie because it has an important theme which is to be careful who you befriend because they can betray you.

This movie is worth the money to see because it is entertaining to those who have a great sense of humor and want to see two people develop a real authentic friendship.

The movie is a must see because it teaches young adults and children real life lessons and if anyone likes action/adventure movies, then this is the one.

By all means, this movie is not disappointing and people can expect the unexpected because this film has unpredictables events that happens, which can shock the audience.

The primary characters, Darius and Michael are the only characters that made this movie so iconic and real, that it keeps the audience attention.

This movie is a hit because it makes people wonder what happens next after each event occurs and the main question for people is why did this happen and what led to this.

Darius kept many people amused by doing things unexpectedly and always trying to steal the spotlight from Michael, which annoyed him but it made him laugh most of the time.

This film was exciting, great and awesome in so many ways that no one will ever understand and it is a must see, you will not regret it.

Anyone who enjoys violence, the unexpected action that takes place, and the characters sense of humor should give this movie a try.
