Nobody (2021, Bob Odenkirk)


I thought it'd be comedic since it starred Bob Odenkirk, but it wasn't. Would any 58-year-old man do all that stuff even if he could? Very violent with implausible fight scenes that went on and on. 

A few things in it were reminiscent of Breaking Bad. There's a Dodge Challenger, there are pallets stacked with bundles of money, there's a dangerous old man in a nursing home. 

I'm not sure a guy pushing 60 would survive all those punches to the face. I wondered about that watching John Wayne's later movies--and he always smiled when people punched him. There was a woman in her 50's around here who decided to take up boxing. I guess she was in shape to do it, but she went into a coma after her first bout.

They were careful to make it clear that Bob Odenkirk did his own fight scenes.
