Director Patrick Hughes [The Expendables 3 (2014),The Hitman’s Bodyguard (2017), Red Hill (2010), Signs (2008)] brings this action-comedy which sees Ryan Reynolds, Samuel L. Jackson and Salma Hayek all reprise their roles from the 2017 breakout hit with a popular star-studded ensemble including Antonio Banderas, Morgan Freeman, Richard E. Grant, Frank Grillo, Caroline Goodall, Rebecca Front and Gabriella Wright.
Sun-drenched Italian locations such as Tuscany, Portofino and Capri also star with amazing locations in Croatia, Slovenia, Bulgaria and the UK providing striking backgrounds to this entertaining and over-the-top action film which certainly doesn’t take itself seriously.
In another life-threatening mission, still unlicensed and under scrutiny, Bryce (Ryan Reynolds) is forced into action by Darius’s (Samuel L. Jackson) even more volatile wife, the infamous international con artist, Sonia Kincaid (Salma Hayek). As Bryce is driven over the edge by these two, the trio get in over their heads in a global plot and soon find that they are all that stand between Europe and a vengeful and powerful madman (Antonio Banderas).
The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard is an adequately enjoyable romp carried by the charisma and chemistry of the leads …..and Morgan Freeman.
