Mr. Right

"You show up and you're like the greatest thing ever...and then you kill people." Martha McKay (Kendrick) has just broken up with her boyfriend and doesn't know what to do with her life. When she meets Mr. Right (Rockwell) the two strike up a fast relationship and things are going great for Martha. Mr. Right though isn't what he seems. He is a hit-man who believes murder is wrong and lives by his personal code of ethics. When Martha finds out the truth she his torn between leaving him, or accepting who he is. This is just a great and fun movie. Perfect amount of comedy and action. I am a huge Sam Rockwell fan to begin with and will watch anything he is in. He is great in this role and Kendrick is perfect at playing the innocent type, but is believable when she steps away from that aspect as well. This is a movie that is nothing but fun and entertaining and is one that can be watched over and over and still be enjoyed. Won't win any awards, but this is one to watch and I highly recommend this for an enjoyable evening. Overall, fun, funny, entertaining, exciting and enjoyable. Has everything you want in dark comedy. I loved it. I give this an A-.

I accidentally found this movie on a plane, and the flight was just under being long enough and sought out to rewatch from the start as it captured me! I really liked this movie, I like it so much I literally created a log in to say so. My review isnt funny, witty or relevant in any way but I feel like this movie is something you should give a go as you might find yourself laughing and bopping along!

The sound track is so up beat and the characters are wacky but enjoyable. I sometimes play this movie in the background while I'm pottering around just because it makes me happy! Although I think the two leads are the oddest couple ever, somehow they make it work.

Overal all, super enjoyable and perky. Please just watch it

First of all, the soundtrack was good. Especially Norman Greenbaum's Spirit In The Sky suited the first gun fight scene excellently, and if by then you had no idea what kind of action movie Mr. Right is, that scene tells it to you straight.

Anna Kendrick is amazing as Martha, a girl so quirky you don't know if she's just weird or if there's actually something even more weird going on his head. Also the way Martha shook off "Mr. Right"'s comments on killing people made me wonder several times if she thinks he is joking, or if she just doesn't care too much, because he is so perfect for her. Sam Rockwell is an interesting choice for "Mr. Right". When Martha first meets him, he comes off pretty creepy, and while Rockwell is still very charming, he still seems dangerous. Even the viewer is suspicious of whether or not to trust him, mostly because we have already seen what he does, but he just seems so nice, but it's masking how creepy he is, but that is kind of destroying how sweet and charming he is, and so on. Right then and there it's a vicious cycle, but of course when we learn more, we trust more.

The romantic side of the film is interesting. The romance between "Mr. Right" and Martha is cute, but you feel like it shouldn't be. He seems older and kind of creepy, Martha just broke up with someone and also doesn't realise how her new, uh, boyfriend is actually a killer. But their chemistry just is astonishing. Of course there are a lot of problems in their relationship if you start analysing it, but they just seem like the perfect, cute, quirky couple.

The action side of the film is very excellent. The scenes are fun to follow, and "Mr. Right"'s skills make them even more interesting.

The character "Mr: Right" is probably meant to seem quite mysterious in the beginning, because nothing is said about him or the origin of his skills immediately. But for some reason that mystery doesn't seem that interesting than other plot-lines in the story. I was more interested to see the action scenes, Hopper's hunt for "Mr. Right", the development of the romance and I wanted to see Martha become a proper action girl. When the information about who "Mr. Right" actually is, it's just like "Okay sure". It doesn't seem like an important detail.

If I'd have to compare Mr. Right with another movie, it would probably be Seven Psychopaths. The reasons for that are Sam Rockwell in both movies, the humour, and just something about the plot, probably how there are several different plans and goals we are following all of them.

Mr. Right is a fun action movie. The plot seems original enough, and the film is interesting to follow. It has a certain spark and a charm. What more do you need?

As a 90's kid that was probably pretty close to either Sam Rockwell's or Anna Kendrick's while this was made, I was brought back to the "quirky" days with this movie. However, I do also remember the specific idea that this movie was trying to be. It is way above average. If you are a child of my generation, you will love this film despite its reliance on the cuteness of the characters. Anna Kendrick does a phenomenal job playing a girl wrapped up in a world she couldn't understand, and Adam Rockwell does good playing an anti-John Wick. Suspension of disbelief is very much required to truly appreciate this film, but if you can, it is actually magical. It's just plain fun. It's almost a period piece. I liked it as much as one possibly could within reality boundaries. Reality is, that with a different generation's eyes, this is probably a cringe piece. However, I enjoyed it. A lot. Kudos to the direction for keeping mostly on point.

I saw the trailer a couple weeks ago and knew I wanted to watch just to see Anna Kendrick. I just now finished the movie and I'm impressed with the whole cast. The movie is not very original (i.e any killer couple movie), but the humor is absolutely spot on. It's very sarcastic and just over the top dumb, and I absolutely loved it. Sam and Anna have fantastic chemistry and really work off each other. I found myself pausing just so I could laugh about how ridiculous some things were. And all in a good way. It's a little violent if you aren't into that, but all in a very light tone. If you're in the mood for a silly comedy that isn't super raunchy or sexual, this is the perfect one. I loved it. I honestly would love to see a sequel, or hopefully Sam and Anna work together again in the future.
