Featured reviews
Been flicking through a load of the reviews on here and I seriously don't understand the hate. It's just a fun movie, just as crazy as the first one. It doesn't take itself too seriously, the jokes are funny and the action is great. What do you expect from this film? If you want to go and watch a fun, action packed film for an afternoon, go and check it out! If you're expecting some sort of classic, super high budget mind blowing phenomenon, go watch Avatar again or something.
I liked the first film I felt the chemistry between the leads was excellent. They played off of each other very well. This film has reduced Reynold's character to a version of every Tracy Morgan character. Whiney. Moronic. Irritating. I don't remember his character as such in the first film (perhaps I've just forgotten?). The addition of Banderas and Freeman were a nice touch, but they were under utilized to the point that there was no connection to them. The plot is weak and never really feels like it delivers on the "thriller" aspect. It was ok, but I'm glad it was a Redbox rental.
I thought this film was very entertaining. It is action packed, and has lots of very funny jokes. I enjoyed it a lot.
I loved the first one than this . This movie is kind of mess . However,it's funny and of course, there are some action scenes but the story isn't good. So, it's watchable if you don't have high expectations.
The original film was great. Loved it. Original. Funny and watchable. Not Oscar winning but a great watch.
This film carries on with the fun characters and introduces a super brain numbing storyline to waste hours of our lives. I can't begin to explain how much of a parody this story is. Not in an intelligent way. But in a painfully lazy way. It is like they had to make a lockdown film and just couldn't care less if it made sense or not.
I want to write a more in depth review but this film is bad. That's all you need to know.

Q&A With the Cast of 'The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard'
We sat down with Ryan Reynolds, Salma Hayek Pinault, and director Patrick Hughes from The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard to talk about on-screen slaps, spray tans, and hilarious behind-the-scenes moments.

- TriviaRyan Reynolds has said of being slapped around in this movie: "In Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard, I'm slapped in the face twice by Salma Hayek and once by Samuel L. Jackson. For the record, it was Salma who didn't pull the punches. Not even once. I can still feel the sharp sting of her tiny hand working its way into my soft Hollywood cheekbones. May God have mercy on her soul."
- GoofsWhen demonstrating virus in Zagreb, Croatia, there is a scene with subway train derailing. There isn't any subway in Croatia.
- Quotes
Sonia Kincaid: I would make a great mother, don't you think?
Michael Bryce: Oh, my God. A child would be so lucky to have you as its host.
Sonia Kincaid: Thank you. It must be your powerful asexuality that makes you such a good listener.
- Crazy creditsThere is one mid-credit scene that takes place and a final placeholder "Dedicated to Gary and Johan" card during the final moments. Gary and Johan "died" being decoys for Michael and Darius.
- Alternate versionsAs was the case with their release of Rambo: Last Blood (2019), Lionsgate cut this film down from its original running time to have more screenings in the US. Other territories like Australia, Europe and Asia have the uncut 117 minute version which was screened theatrically.
