Formulaic doesn't begin to cover it. If Hollywood wants to compete with Nollywood, Bollywood, Europe, Korea, Japan, and China, they damn well need to up their game. This was embarrassingly bad.

The starting sequence to hook the audience looks ridiculous with a Japanese executive named Mr. Kurosawa, who reminds everybody of the famous Japanese film director. A kimono-clad girl waits for him, but in reality such arrangement turns…

Reynolds and Jackson work well together as a hopelessly mismatched odd couple on a road trip from Hell while Gary Oldman is pure evil as the pockmarked dictator determined to see them both dead. Of course it's all testosterone and…

I don't recall watching a movie with so much foul language as this one.
Every 3rd word is "MFer" or F**k or other vulgar language.
The Selma Hayek character is an extreme potty mouth...she is toxic.
This actually detracts from the…

Enjoyed this movie, with 2 great actors portraying the hit man and the body guard. I Found it to be entertaining, funny, and action packed, not to much though.

Anyone saying "too many bad words" or violence missed GUNS on front cover & the R on back or can't pick movies well. Maybe move to kiddie section next time.

Just an absolutely ridiculous movie filled with blood, profanity, and Ryan Reynolds making exasperated facial expressions. Could probably have stood to be about thirty minutes shorter, but a lot of fun anyway.

Jackson’s two hundred and something targets had been nefarious underworld characters, so turns out he’s a Good Guy. Copious blood, expletives, crimes and emotional misunderstandings.

This is yet another in the neverending stream of buddy cop movies where they rehash every cliche' in the book. If you have not seen Lethal Weapon or any of its clones then you might like this one. Otherwise, skip it.

Rated 5/10. Average. There are funny bits in this show, but the violence and swearing spoiled it for me. At times the violence was almost at cartoon level.
The actions scenes are good, although rather unbelievable.
Ideally, I'd…

This is an action/comedy/romance and includes a race against time (which always adds to the tension). The stunts are so extreme that it's unlikely anybody would survive just one, but that's part of what makes it so funny and when I…

Exciting and funny enough, but this is not a new story, and some of the stunts are too fantastical to be believed. Perhaps meant as a parody. In that case it works.

Ryan Reynolds is as always funny and... well, hot in this film.
But other than that, the movie was action filled to the brim, and just too long, and predictable.

Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson spend a couple of hours yelling at each other in this buddy road trip sort of action film that has a down on his luck bodyguard reluctantly taking on a detail to bring a notorious assassin to the war…
