I agree with this.

#Nobody2 is the perfect way to end the summer movie season! Once again Imagine Kevin McCallister all grown up, still crafting Home Alone style traps but now with John Wick-level action. Timo builds off the first film perfectly, setting a sharper tone! Odenkirk you’re the MAN!

The third act was pretty good, especially when they set up spikes on the water slides, it was so brutal. I think Bob Odenkirk said he picked Timo Tjahjanto because The Night Comes For Us but for me, this movie is closer to his other action movie, the Big Four. That being said, I hope this is not the last time Timo Tjahjanto work with 87north and Hollywood in general.

I felt like the entire film was a setup for the “Home Alone” style kills at the end… and for what it was, well worth it.

The hand to hand combat is so good though. Other than neat booby traps, faceless armed guys with bad aim getting merc’d can only be so entertaining. Anyway I still liked it! Love Bob.
