Nobody 2

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/nobody-2-movie-review-bob-odenkirk-returns-in-an-action-sequel-that-knows-its-audience/ "Nobody 2 isn't going to redefine the genre or make anyone's top-ten lists of the year, but it fulfills its mission perfectly: entertain its target audience for ninety minutes with inventive, stunt-driven action, sharp humor, and a charismatic lead. It's one of those cases where the formula, even worn out, still works thanks to competent executi…

I must admit, I’d completely forgotten “Nobody” (2021) when I sat down to watch this, but once it picks up an head of steam it’s actually quite a good fun, entirely senseless, stream of violence that does raise a smile. Still beholden to “The Barber” (Colin Salmon) after his first outing, “Hutch” (Bob Odenkirk) has been carrying out some dangerous tasks to try and reduce his $30 millions debt. After this most recent task, though, he declares that he is going to take an holiday with his wife (Con…

If I'm recalling George Orwell's 1984 correctly, one passage in the book talked about the blandness and general awfulness of the food offered by the authoritarian state. Cabbage that stank and coffee that wasn't real coffee. I have to say I've come to feel the same way about a lot of Western entertainment in recent years. It lacks vibrancy, individuality, it lacks flavour. The latest and I have to say unwanted iteration of "Nobody", the unimaginatively titled "Nobody 2" meets that defi…

Younger me would have really liked this. Maybe? Maybe I would have known that it was just rudderless action pasted back to back. It's pretty good but I already saw this with Christina Ricci. She was a better assassin. Brother is definitely a welcome aspect of this. Never bring a machete to a katana fight is the best line in the film. I may not know because I skipped most of it. It's just a bunch of fighting. Some of it is quite inspired. Most of it is...well if you kill 100 people, can you ki…

Nobody (2021) was an outstanding film. Everything about it was innovative, surprising, funny, encouraging, etc. The believability factor was there too. I couldn't wait to watch Nobody 2 (2025). Nobody 2 (2025) does what many successors do - but not all. It's a continuation with the story line but pumped up with totally outrageousness making it terribly unbelievable. It just became stupid to me. I was fine with never having seen #2. For me, the best part was the first 20-30 minutes. After that…

79/100 After several assassin jobs to help pay off a debt, Hutch decides it's time to take his family on vacation and walks right into another mess. Much simpler and straight forward story line than the first film but the characters are just really fun to watch. That along with the humor, finely choreographed stunts and violent kills, my wife and I had a great time watching this one. Sharon Stone made a very different antagonist, perhaps a little over the top making her sort of ridiculous at …
