Rated R Opens: August 15, 2025 Kevin says NOBODY 2 ROCKS! BETTER CALL SAUL’s Bob Odenkirk is the latest middle-aged actor cashing in on the everyman beating up gangsters with the sequel NOBODY 2. Odenkirk plays a former assassin trying to live a boring suburban life. While paying a debt to the mob, he takes his family on vacation but stumbles into a local crime ring. This comedy-action subgenre can be a lot of fun, and this sequel ramps up the whimsy, not falling into the darkness that some movies do. The film is completely absurd with over-the-top characters and unrealistic situations, refusing to acknowledge the basic rules of science or marksmanship. However, being this absurd, makes it a cartoon – to the point that the climax takes place in a booby-trapped waterpark, HOME ALONE style. And boy, does it work. The cast is spot-on, but not just with Odenkirk in his conflicted role and Connie Nielsen as his reluctantly understanding wife. Colin Hanks is great against type as a corrupt sheriff, but the MVP is Sharon Stone as the unhinged crime boss. It’s deliciously violent and vicariously cathartic, tapping into everyone’s need to protect their family. NOBODY 2 gets four waterslides out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
