NOBODY (2021)
NOBODY (2021), Ilya Naishuller, dir.

I sort of went into this thinking it was going to be "John Wick, only a comedy," which it... kind of is, but the jokes are few and far between. Instead, it's maybe more of a "masculinity in crisis" film, which I have a limited tolerance for. Still, once this gets started—which takes longer than you'd expect—the themes don't really matter. The escalating battles are fun, and choreographed well, so I had a pretty decent time.
