Simon West's latest comedy-thriller, featuring an ensemble cast led by Christoph Waltz, struggles to deliver a engaging narrative. Set against the backdrop of Belfast, the film follows aging hitman Danny Dolinski, portrayed by Waltz, who is forced into retirement. He mentors Gen Z assassin Wihlborg while navigating generational differences and a comedic job gone wrong. Despite the film's potential, it suffers from lackluster character connections and a flat delivery, leading to an underwhelming cinematic experience when released in UK and Irish cinemas on 7 March and digital platforms on 10 March.
Action legend Simon West has crafted a mediocre comedy-thriller that struggles to capitalize on its impressive cast, leaving viewers longing for more engagement.
Set in Belfast, the film features Christoph Waltz as an aging hitman whose reluctant mentorship of a Gen Z assassin highlights generational differences in a comedic narrative.
Despite the star-studded lineup, the film fails to establish a strong connection between characters, resulting in a somewhat lackluster viewing experience.
The dynamic between Christoph Waltz's character and Cooper Hoffman offers moments of dark humor, yet ultimately falls short of making the film memorable.
