Bob Oedenkirk plays Hutch an ordinary, everyday CPA working at his father in-laws metal fabrication firm. The first few scenes show just how mundane his life really is. The End.
A break-in at his home by two very desperate people upends this dull existence. Not only is his life dull but he's a coward, too.
Well, not for long. On the slimmest of premises, he goes out for revenge. And revenge always leads to bad things.
Basically, it's John Wick light with a bit of Mr. and Mrs. Smith for seasoning. The first half is gritty good with some nice nasty fights that are the opposite of smooth. But the second half gets a bit too cartoony. The quips start to show up. And the unbelievably cool moments that make no sense except they are cool. Bob Odenkirk does a really good job as the lead, but everyone else is just a prop for his shenanigans. Christopher Lloyd plays Odenkirk's father. RZA plays the best friend.
The message I took away from the film is the only way to save your marriage is to kill people.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
