"Ace Bodyguard" ~ Movie Commentary *073

One is the hero of "Deadpool" and the other is the hero of "The Expendables". Together, the two tough guys have made a movie that reminds me of "Rush Hour". The cover was modeled after the original cover of "The Bodyguard," Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner, and what a team it was at the time. Maybe it's because I don't like this genre very much. I feel that the excessive language elements have turned the film into a talk show. The momentum at the end of the film, when the heavy truck drove up, I thought that the scene of "the fall of the White House" would reappear, but it was actually a "virtual worker" after holding it for a long time. It can only be said that the humor is greater than the scene, and the laughter is more than the plot.

❤Personal feeling score 6.0, the film is 112 minutes long. This European and American version is 118 minutes long, I don't know which ones have been abridged. It's already a comedy action movie, so what else can't be shown? ! However, the 4K source I watched this time, except for the sound, immediately felt extremely clear. I still prefer the more traditional type, I have to be hard when it's time to be hard. Ambiguous films like this are really uninteresting. There are three aces this year, namely "Ace Bodyguard", "Ace Security" and "Ace Special Agent". This bodyguard can be considered a pass, that's all.

The Hitman's Bodyguard quotes

  • Darius Kincaid: The Bible says to never take revenge, to leave it to the Lord. But I wasn't prepared to wait that long.

  • [Kincaid corners Dukhovich on the roof. He shoots at Dukhovich's leg. Dukhovich collapses, crying in pain. Kincaid approaches him]

    Darius Kincaid: Up on the ledge, dookie man.

    [Dukhovich does not comply. He groans in pain]

    Darius Kincaid: You heard me, bitch! Up on the ledge!

    [painfully, Dukhovich sits on the ledge. He looks at Kincaid and chuckles nastily]

    Vladislav Dukhovich: [venomously] The look on your face. You're so proud. Darius Kincaid, about to be a hero, save the day. None of that matters. There is no redemption, no atonement for a man like you. Your whole life has been but a trail of corpses, and I will be just another dead body on the pile! Go ahead! Finish me! But don't think for a moment it will change what you are.

    [Kincaid stares at Dukhovich for a moment, then bursts out laughing]

    Darius Kincaid: I don't give a fuck about all of that!

    [Kincaid stops laughing and gazes at Dukhovich grimly]

    Darius Kincaid: You fucked up when you shot my bodyguard.

    [a flashback: Dukhovich shoots at Kincaid. Bryce saves Kincaid's life by shielding him, getting himself injured by the bullet meant for Kincaid]

    Vladislav Dukhovich: [confused] Who?

    [Kincaid kicks Dukhovich off the roof to his death]
