Such a frustrating disappointment

Humaira Grant

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

In my opinion the movie was great. A great combination of action, comedy, and romance

After the failed delivery of a Japanese client Michael Bryce loses his Triple-A Executive position and becomes a simple bodyguard for hire. Interpol Agent Roussel (Elodie Yung) hires him to protect Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson) a contract assassin to testify against Vladislav Dukhovich (Gary Oldman), who if Kincaid fails to show up at trial, will go back to power and treat his people as he wants and that's a very bad thing. Michael has to deliver Kincaid to the court in the Hague from Manchester.This is very over the top, too much foul language by almost everyone especially by Mrs Kincaid (Selma Hayek), who is in prison. The stunts, fights, explosions, car/boat chases are extremely good and well choreographed. And, yes, over the top also because of over-acting by Samuel L. Jackson as Kincaid, but maybe he can be forgiven due to the circumstances of his being arrested and then protected by a bodyguard who he did try to kill many, many times. (Count 28) The banter between Michael and Darius is sometimes clever, and sometimes funny, sometimes over done, but always honest. The scene I liked the best was when Michael and Darius got a ride in a bus filled with nuns. Very good. The carnage at the end when Michael and Darius are heading to the court house is unbelievably good and the hope is that a lot of the destruction was CGI and not real. It looked too real. Notables: Elodie Yung as an Interpol Agent who Michael is in love with, but Michael blames her for his losing his Triple-A rating and his job; Tine Joustra as Renata Casoria a Chief Interpol Agent; Joaquim de Almeida as Jean Foucher an Interpol Agent under Renata CasorisSo basically, this is a movie of extremely good stunts, explosions, chases, and foul language, but it has its moments. Production wise it is very good. (7/10)Violence: Yes. Sex: No. Nudity: No. Humor: Yes. Language: Yes, way too much. Rating: B

If you like action with a side of humour you'll enjoy this. Entertaining throughout.

Pulp fiction meets deadpool, not as intense as both films, but a great watch and very funny. Sarcasm all the way.
