Nobody 2

While the first one is pretty good but ultimately it has issues standing out, I think the seqeul mostly succeeds in crafting its own identity.

It doesn't take itself as seriously and at first I was really worried about the runtime but it really is just better.
It still has problems, I think while the story is about Hutch's family it really doesn't focus that much on them rather threw hutch and his wants and desires.
I also really like how really...it avoids allot of issues action films have like the unnecessary conflict between husband and wife where the wife leaves before ultimately getting back together. Its an example but I really like how it just skips that.

Nobody 2 is not a masterpiece and unfortunately I think this will not be as liked as the first film but I think its action is fantastic, story is decent and overall what holds this picture together is its theme of family and the cast.

(Also watch my newest short film which came out today i love bottle caps on Letterboxd https://boxd.it/VKnI )

As much as I enjoyed <I>Nobody</i>, this film didn't do it for me (and I <b>LOVE</b> the director, Timo Tjahjanto, whose <I>V/H/S</i> segments are always a blast). The storyline was forced, placing Odenkirk's "Hutch" in a random area that just so happens to be a stomping ground for some serious criminal activities, and the villains of the film were too animated (like the ones you read in a comic book), resulting in Sharon Stone becoming a sort of comedic side piece to Colin Hanks' sheriff.

The only benefit to the film was watching it with <A HREF="http://www.letterboxd.com/lgoled">LG OLED's Perfect Color</A>. Otherwise, let's make <I>Nobody</i> into a trilogy just to wrap it up and move on.
