Movie Review
Nobody 2 brings back Bob Odenkirk as Hutch Mansell in a bigger and bloodier sequel.
This time the fights are even wilder, with clever use of everyday objects and nonstop action.
Odenkirk shines again, perfectly balancing Hutch’s role as a family man and a dangerous fighter.
Sharon Stone steps in as the main villain, adding a sharp edge, while Colin Hanks and John Ortiz give strong supporting performances.
The story does not do anything very new. It sticks to the classic revenge action formula, but the fast pace and brutal action keep things exciting.
At just under an hour and a half, the movie never drags and delivers plenty of thrills for fans of the first film.
If you enjoyed the original Nobody, this sequel gives you more of what you loved: intense fights, dark humor, and a hero who will not back down.
