THE HITMAN'S BODYGUARD (full review at The Reel Word)

Michael Bryce (Ryan Reynolds) is an elite bodyguard, down on his luck and catering to low-rent clients after an incident on a high-profile job sent his career into a tailspin.

As fate would have it, Kincaid is being transported from England by Bryce’s ex-girlfriend, Interpol agent Amelia Roussel (Elodie Yung), whom he blames for his professional nosedive. When the Interpol convoy is ambushed, and suspecting an inside job, Roussel calls on Bryce to help get Kincaid to The Hague intact.

The quartet, plus their stagecoach driver O.B., seek refuge at Minnie's Haberdashery knowing that the inclement weather will force them to hole up for a few days. As the storm closes in, paranoia and suspicion prevail, and the bounty hunters and their fellow guests begin to understand that perhaps all is not as it seems.
