Private European Union based bodyguard Michael Bryce is hired to protect Takashi Kurosawa, a Japanese arms dealer. All apparently goes well, until Kurosawa is shot in the head through the airplane window. Two years later, Bryce has fallen into disgrace and ekes out a living protecting drug-addicted corporate executives in London. Meanwhile, Vladislav Dukhovich, the ruthless and bloodthirsty dictator of Belarus, is put on trial for crimes against humanity at the International Criminal Court. The prosecution is unable to make headway against him, as they are unable to substantiate their allegations with physical evidence and Dukhovich assassinates any witnesses who could do so. The prosecution's last hope is notorious incarcerated hitman Darius Kincaid, who agrees to testify against Dukhovich in exchange for releasing his wife Sonia from prison. During transport of Kincaid to Hague, Interpol got attacked by Dukhovich's men who got notified about transfer by an inside connection. Everyone, except Kincaid and agent Russel, who was a girlfriend of Michael before his accident with Kurosawa, got killed and the two escape to safe house. In the meanwhile agent Russel called Michael to help her with transportation but doesn't know anything about conflicts he had with Kincaid in past. Now they have to make it together to Hague in order to testify against Dukhovich.

Great laugh and relaxation. Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson are a perfect due for an action movie. The fun with these two is guarantied.

The relationship between Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson. I am a huge fan of Ryan and his movies are always fun but with someone as funny as Samuel it only gets better. It was a perfect match and I couldn't imagine anyone better for this role.

Happy. I'm not a huge fan of action movies. I gave it a chance just because I never miss anything from Ryan Reynolds. I knew it's gonna be fun as all his other movies are.

Ryan Reynolds as Michael Bryce, a triple A rated executive protection agent and former CIA officer.
Samuel L. Jackson as Darius Kincaid/Evans, one of the world’s most notorious hitmen and Sonia’s husband.
Gary Oldman as Vladislav Dukhovich, the dictatorial President of Belarus.
Élodie Yung as Amelia Roussel, an Interpol agent, and Michael's ex-girlfriend.
Salma Hayek as Sonia Kincaid, Darius’s equally notorious wife.

You're gonna have great time by watching it.
