#JOHN WICK 2 MOVIE TAVERN SERIES#
For the purposes of self-creation, Mansell freely juggles a series of masks and poses, and thanks to Odenkirk’s masterful play, he is credible both as a slightly crass and inconspicuous accountant, and as a case of a midlife crisis tired of the monotony of the American dream, one-liners and ironic jokes, a cold-blooded killing machine. His face often shows contradictory emotions, lifting the edges of internal dilemmas. Shattered between social norms and expectations, the image of a racial fagot and a deeply hidden and suppressed desire to return to the old, much more emotional life, it gradually succumbs to old habits. Despite the simplicity of the plot, Hutch created by Odenkirk is by no means a paper character. His nuanced performance amounts to Nobody more than dozens of similar action heroes. There can be only one star of this show – and that is Bob Odenkirk. Thanks to them, even though a lot is happening on the screen, we do not lose the thread every second. The festival of joyful killing is great to watch This is due not only to the attractive choreography of the duels and the creative use of unexpected props (for example a plastic straw), but also excellent photos by Paweł Pogorzelski and rhythmic, precise editing. On the contrary, the grotesque exaggeration leads the brutal sequences to absurdity, consciously forcing a wink. At the same time, it is difficult to talk about the glorification of violence – it is both spectacular and definitely exaggerated (which the characters themselves notice in the “grand finale”), but it does not undergo any particular fetishization. Nobodyit continues the manner and structure of these films, offering above all a throbbing, excessively demolition. These names, while relatively “young” in Hollywood, should sound familiar to action movie fans – Kolstad wrote a trilogy about John Wick, Naishuller – shot entirely from Hardcore Henry’s first-person perspective. Derek Kolstad is responsible for the script, and Ilya Naishuller is directing. The story itself is not complicated – it does not have to be anyway. The real reason was always to feel like a “kick”, a shot of adrenaline, As we learn, the pretext behind the bloody crusade of our hero (on a micro scale – a children’s bracelet, in a broader context – the safety of the immediate family) is just that – the pretext, the justification that Hutch presents to himself. Then the inconspicuous bureaucrat (and, as it turns out, the trigger for hiring at rest, acting on behalf of the special services) turns into a figure of a rebel for no reason.
However, when the routine of his everyday life is disrupted, a dark past comes to light. At first glance, such a persona seems to be Hutch – a neutral vessel to be filled with your own experiences. A figure of a medieval everyman– a universally ordinary man in whom every equally ordinary recipient will see himself. Strangely familiar faces and circumstances. Recently, popular cinema has taken a liking to this type of heroes – gray citizens driven to a border situation. Unfortunately for them, Hutch Mansell is not quite an ordinary accountant either … Bad luck wants one of the beaten adventurers to turn out to be related to a prominent Russian gangster.

When it turns out, however, that apart from a small amount of cash and a watch with a sentimental value, the bracelet of a few-year-old daughter is also lost, the man decides to take matters into his own hands.Īnd although he ultimately does not find the trinket itself, a group of drunken blips harassing a stranger in a night bus turns out to be an equally good target, allowing to vent the frustrations gurgling just below the surface of the skin and the aggression suppressed by years. One night, the monotony is interrupted by two burglars – Hutch, though maybe, does not react. His life is devoid of fireworks – you could even say that it is leaking through his fingers somewhere between one cup of cold coffee and another garbage truck, which, as usual, arrived a few minutes too early. Every day, he types numbers into Excel tables in the office of his father-in-law’s small industrial plant. What if I just drop it all and… go against the Russian mafia? Normik in actionĪt first glance, Hutch Mansell (Bob Odenkirk) is average in all respects. There would probably be a bit more distracting elements: here another deadline, there is a loan installment, an electricity bill, the bathroom has run out of paper, Kryśka from the accounting department is sipping this coffee again much too loudly. John Lennon allegedly once said that life is what escapes when we are busy making plans.
