The Protege 4K 2021

In 1991, in Vietnam, the killer picked up the girl, decided not to kill her, but to make her his protégé, and took her out of the country. 30 years later, Anna and Moody are excellent partners who "clear up blockages" all over the world for a big reward. For her heart, Anna runs a collectible book store in London and most of the time leads a quiet, unremarkable life, but one day Moody asks her to find one person, and soon he himself dies from the bullets of hired killers. Having dealt with those sent for her, Anna decides to find those who are behind this and avenge the death of her mentor.

And the old people, by the way, are still nothing. In the sense - wow, they will give odds to many young people. And if the museum relics in 'The Bodyguard of the Killer's Wife' - Morgan Freeman, Antonio Banderas, Samuel L. Jackson frankly 'filled up' the 2020 picture with caricatures of hackwork, here and now the 'veterans' can even be slapped. Again, Samuel L. Jackson is practicing with firearms. Again 'tarantinit' the audience with quick-witted ballads a la 'Pulp Fiction'. Again, his eye fire burns like a soffit X-ray. Lost there, won back here. Well, young fellow! Well done! With a killer, he is now 'while away the century'. A killer who lived right up to old age. Not deep yet, but very respectable. Seventy-three he will 'knock' in December. Not a decrepit ruin in front of us, but still an 'eagle'. Flutters like a butterfly. He holds his head, does not shuffle his legs, his hands do not shake. Shmalnut from the trunk is still capable. What he actually does, in the role, organically arriving.

And Michael Keaton presents himself with no less scope. In this movie, he is assigned a role in the camp of opponents. Serves evil. Evil feeds itself. And so what if in just a couple of days, on September 5, his anniversary - 70 years will be the 'star'. The gait is firm, the eyes are sharp, breathing without shortness of breath. Reaction to surprises by preemptive strikes. And he can still wave his fists and put a bullet or two into the target, exactly one to one. The cutie of the bodyguard shop, he's in the Killer's Code. But not just some kind of supernumerary, second-rate, but a 'brain' with the functionality of a manager with an influential person. Chain dog at the feet of the owner. And barks, if necessary, and licks his hand in gratitude for the 'meat in cabbage soup' ...

Robert Patrick - aka the 'icon' from the classic 'Terminator 2', singing along here and now. Somewhat edematous, somewhat immersed. However, its role is through passage, only in the glare. Soon he is 63 years old, he is clearly inferior to his two eminent colleagues, physics and plastic. But the background does. For this, I was probably called to the picture.

The real 'Pearl' of the tape, I can't find another word - Maggie Q. Is this really the same 'Matilda' that was brought up in 'Leon' while going through the basics of training with a hitman? She must have matured, fluffed, blossomed, and even somewhat ... grown old. 42 years for a lady is nothing. So, a trifle. You can't take your eyes off her. Good. At the same time, she is good not only externally, but also in the profession. She twists on one leg, like a ballerina, tramples on villains of different stripes without remorse. Any weapon in hand is a dagger of death for the enemy. 'Might', however! Here, devil!

A great movie to while away the evening. An action movie in the sequel to the directorial work of Luc Besson. And what? Why not? They say - somewhere backfired, but somewhere immediately responded. This is exactly the case.

The picture is flavored with scenes of humor. And this is both dumbfounded, and causes a smile. So tempting to ask - are you serious? Do not joke? I'm talking about the bed scenes of antagonist heroes
