The river in Amsterdam is really yellow

The mouth cannon is still Che Hulu, and the words are endless, but the director's performance in the film is unexpected, the acting is full of tension, and the portrayal of characters is fully competent. The plot of the whole film is still relatively old-fashioned, American Hollywood-style funny style, and it is a more classic one black and one white partner. First of all, this combination is reminiscent of the Men in Black series, which is what it looks like in terms of skin tone. Second, there's a yacht chase scene in the film that's reminiscent of Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie's Among the Tourists. Maybe it's because after watching a lot of American films, many of the plots are very similar, and there is nothing that is particularly easy to stand out. The only difference is that the actors' acting skills are different and the special effects scenes designed are different. There are not too many new ideas. Of course, there are also bugs in the screenwriting. For example, the judge of the International Military Tribunal in The Hague said that if Kinkade arrives within the specified time, the court will accept his testimony, which is completely impossible in real life. existing. There is also the traitor of the CIA, that is, the deputy director who just walked out in a hurry in the end, just escaped, and did not set other plots for him. I feel that the existence of this character is not full. In contrast to the whole, if I have to name any highlights, the only thing that impresses me is that the river water in Amsterdam is really yellow.

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]
