Popcorn vs Kernel

5 Popcorns = Must see!
4 Popcorns = You'll probably like it.
3 Popcorns = Go in the morning when there are cheaper ticket prices.
2 Popcorns = Maybe rent it.
1 Popcorn = Wait for a friend to rent it and watch it with them.
Kernel = Don't see it at all. Ever.

The Hitman's Bodyguard (2017)





Directed by: Patrick Hughes

Written by: Tom O' Connor

Starring: Ryan Reynolds & Samuel L. Jackson








When Darius Kincaid (Jackson) gets summoned to give his testimony in court about an angry tyrant, he becomes the everyone's number one target.  Michael Bryce (Reynolds) gets hired to protect Kincaid, but their history may get in the way of him doing his job.

This film was both hilarious and had plenty of action.  Honestly, I can't think of anything bad to say about the film.  I didn't think there were any slow scenes and each actor gave a great performance, especially Salma Hayek.  Her character was great.

The plot was sound and the cinematography, special effects, and more was great too.  Probably the best technical feature was the editing, because they were able to hit all the sound points (which could be the sound technician rather than the editor), and they did a few scenes where they split the screen into three or so parts and have different scenes playing in each of them.  I love when editors do that, if done well and in this case it was done well.

5 popcorns.
