Um þessa kvikmynd

The world’s best hit man has decided to come in from the cold—and testify against his former employer at the International Criminal Court in the Hague, Netherlands. But this isn’t just any employer: it’s the corrupt, murderous former President of an Eastern European nation, who has an enormous army of mercenaries at his disposal, and will do anything to stop the testimony.

Unexpected brilliance. Don't let the unlikely plot or awkward title deter you: this is an action packed mash up of international espionage, love, corruption, intense street chases and high body counts. Ryan Reynolds brings his signature Deadpool wit (though not enough of it). One of my 2017 favorites.

An entertaining way to pass an afternoon - fun and action as you would expect. A great life changing experience it is not but it doesn't claim to be anything other than entertainment. Enjoyable over the top performances all round. I will happily watch again.

Not sure why this rates so poorly on Rotten Tomatoes - we enjoyed it! Plenty of obscenities, but other than that - great plotline, solid characters. Only a few laugh-out-loud funny moments, but humourous nonetheless.
