Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard is the sequel to The Hitman’s Bodyguard starring Ryan Reynolds, Salma Hayek and Samuel L Jackson. It picks up where the last left off with Reynolds’ character, Michael Bryce, struggling with the fact that his body guarding career is in shambles. When a terror attack threatens Europe, he must push past his insecurities, to grudging team up with the last people he'd want to work with again, hitman, Darius Kincaid played by Jackson, and his wife, Sonia, played by Hayek.
The plot was foreseeable at times but still very entertaining with high action from almost the beginning, It was funny, with great themes about getting up when you are knocked down and pushing forward though adversity.
Ryan Reynolds, Salma Hayek and Samuel L Jackson had strong chemistry and worked well off of one another. Salma was the star of the movie and was very funny. I was also impressed when she discussed in interviews that she did her own stunts. I also enjoyed the addition of Morgan Freeman.
Overall, I thought that this was a proper sequel, equal to or perhaps even better than the original. It was full of fun; a clever comedy worth checking out.
