Trailer
Why watch this film?
The comedy 'Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard' surprised in 2017 when the story of a bodyguard (Ryan Reynolds, at the peak due to 'Deadpool') who had to protect a criminal (Samuel L. Jackson) while escorting him to a historic trial. There are no great directorial touches from Patrick Hughes ('The Expendables 3'), but the action and crude laughter manage to mix well. Now, in 'Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard', this mixture resurfaces. Hughes returns to direct, as do Jackson and Reynolds. Now, the story shows this bodyguard embarking on a mission not only with the criminal, but also with the wife (Salma Hayek) of this character of Jackson -- and a new eccentric villain, now played by Antonio Banderas. Fun is guaranteed, with some doses of action. However, the warning remains: many elements seen in the first movie are repeated exhaustively, despite the freshness that Hayek brings to the story. And Reynolds is the most fun, but doing the same character as always -- some moments give the impression that he will simply put on the Marvel anti-hero's clothes. An unpretentious movie to pass the time and have fun. Oh, and pay attention: the first song played in the credits is none other than Tim Maia.

The Hitman's Bodyguard
"Buddy comedies" have been a cornerstone of action cinema for years, with notable examples like 'Lethal Weapon' or 'Between Kisses and Shots', among other similar movies. However, they usually feature duos that, in broad strokes, tend to belong to the same side. 'Hard to Take Care Of' - a title that alludes to the classic 'Hard to Kill' - puts an amusing twist on the formula of the subgenre by bringing together a hitman and a bodyguard (its original title is 'The Hitman's Bodyguard'). It must be said, the plot sometimes goes beyond the limits of any verisimilitude, but the charisma and chemistry on screen of Ryan Reynolds ('Deadpool') and the legend of flowery language, Samuel L. Jackson ('Pulp Fiction: Violent Times'), make this an extremely entertaining action comedy.
The Expendables 3
If it wasn't already clear from the two previous installments of the trilogy, 'The Expendables 3' is the kind of movie that embraces its premise of bringing together 80s action movie legends like Sylvester Stallone ('Rambo'), Mel Gibson ('Mad Max') and Dolph Lundgren ('He-Man') in a plot seasoned with nostalgic self-referential winks. The formula may seem a bit worn out for this occasion, but fans of high-caliber action films will find exactly what they're looking for here, with the participation of new actors such as the great Harrison Ford ('Star Wars'), Antonio Banderas ('Once Upon a Time in Mexico') and legendary UFC fighter Ronda Rousey.
The Man From Toronto
This film directed by Patrick Hughes ('The Expendables') is essentially an action comedy seasoned with a case of mistaken identity, whose hilarious pace, full of blunders and confusion, will bring out plenty of laughs from the audience - but without leaving aside the adrenaline and high-speed sequences. The cast of 'The Man From Toronto' is undoubtedly its most attractive aspect, with Kevin Hart and Woody Harrelson, whose disparate personalities make them a captivating duo.

Featuring a powerful ensemble cast, including Jesse Williams, Kellan Lutz and Jess Weixler, MONEY is a chilling lesson in greed that will keep you guessing until the very end!
Deadpool & Wolverine
Wolverine is recovering from his injuries when he crosses paths with the loudmouth, Deadpool. They team up to defeat a common enemy.
