Absolutely the most pleasant surprise. The film updates the template created by old action films such as "Lethal Weapon" with its distinctive violent scenes and popular action comedy.
Even by the "popcorn" standards of summer action movies, the film is overlong, overly violent and over-the-top.
The film has enough gunfights to keep theatergoers enjoying their popcorn, but it also needs more agile and professional behind-the-scenes personnel to make it more entertaining.
The film's script is extremely funny, which makes it not funny enough. At the same time, its preference for extreme violence seems somewhat contradictory to the film's comedy positioning.
As an action movie, this film is indeed a film that can make movie fans laugh. It brings more joy than many Hollywood movies. However, there are too many "quarrels" between the two heroes in the film, which has become a major factor that hinders everyone from appreciating American humor. Although the film has many well-known actors such as Ryan Reynolds, Samuel L. Jackson, Gary Oldman and Salma Hayek, it places too much emphasis on blending comedy with crime and action genres, and does not simply Action movies look so clean and neat.
Among the 2017 movies, "The King's Bodyguard" can be regarded as a model of successful commercial films. It has an extremely rigorous structure and story, with very distinctive characters and rhythm, and behind all of this is the entire industrialized Hollywood.
Compared with traditional action movies, the biggest difference in "Ace's Bodyguard" is its poverty. Ryan Reynolds plays a bodyguard who doesn't understand style and adheres to norms, while Samuel L. Jackson plays a killer who does whatever he wants, romantically dotes on his wife. The two were once mortal enemies, but now they have to work together to avoid being chased and reach their destination within 27 hours. Several action scenes have their own characteristics, especially when combined with the background music, they create a very special sense of joy. The first meeting between the killer and his wife was accompanied by romantic music. It was obviously a fight, but it was full of pink romance; in the street shootout scene, the bodyguard stood in front of the camera and complained, while the background was a gunfight. , the music is relaxed and joyful; while in the indoor fighting scene, the music was changed to electronic rock, and the bodyguard with the word "mourning" written on his face also became angry.
