Nobody (2021) is a high-octane action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk as Hutch Mansell, an unassuming suburban father whose dormant past as a lethal government operative is reignited after a home invasion. The film follows Hutch as he confronts a ruthless Russian crime syndicate, unleashing a torrent of brutal and graphic violence. Often compared to films like 'John Wick' due to its 'one-man army' premise, it blends intense action with dark humor. The movie explores themes of identity, suppressed rage, and the lengths a man will go to protect his family and rediscover his sense of self. It is intended for mature audiences due to its prevalent strong violence, profanity, and thematic content.
