The Hitman's Bodyguard (2017)
#1
Why was't this film on the Doom radar? It's the perfect DOOM flick. It has plot holes you can drive a speedboat through. It has terrible dialogue. It has the Hollywood School of Marksmanship. 

But it also has some really good fights. It has long shot action sequences. And it has the European Action film feel of Luc Besson. Jean Reno really should have popped up at some point.

Basically, it's a remake of The Bodyguard with Deadpool in the Kevin Costner role and Nick Fury plays Whitney Houston. Elektra (Netflix Elecktra not Movie Elektra) hires Deadpool to get Nick Fury to the Hague to appear at a War Crimes trial for commissioner Gordon (Christopher Nolan Commisionar Gordon not Zach Snyder Commissioner Gordon) Things go immediately wrong. Commissioner Gordon really wants Nick Fury dead and he has an army of Euro Trash to do it. There are gun fights and clever banter and Nick Fury and Deadpoool hate each other because of past problems. Deadpool also has problems with his ex-girlfriend Elektra.

The trip to the court date is fraught with peril. Especially since Nick Fury has to see his wife, Frida Kahlo, one more time before he goes to jail.

The centerpiece is Amsterdam. And once you've seen Amsterdam, you can never go back.

It's Mayhem. It's fun. It's really dumb. Nick and Deadpool do a great job but in the end they both learn a valuable lesson.

We all should have seen this together.
As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
