The Hitman's Bodyguard (2017) - A Perfectly Laid Plan

Michael Bryce is a meticulous, elite protection agent who has been hired to guard Darius Kincaid, a notorious and incredibly reckless hitman who needs to testify at an international court. Bryce prides himself on carefully planning every single detail of their travel courses. However, while pinned down under heavy gunfire, Bryce discovers a massive flaw in their operational security—Kincaid has been carrying a live, trackable cell phone the entire time.


Michael Bryce (Ryan Reynolds): A high-strung, professional bodyguard who obsesses over meticulous planning, tactical calculations, and 21st-century security measures.


Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson): A relaxed, highly capable hitman who relies purely on instinct rather than planning, entirely oblivious to how modern technology can track him.

  • Bryce [00:00:02]: When you mess with that perfectly laid plan, things go...
    Kincaid: Look out! I got you! I got this.
    Bryce [00:00:11]: There's more than one! Draw their fire so I can take a look.
    Kincaid [00:00:25]: Okay, three shooters in a row, all lit up! What do you want to do? Come down here and kill us?
    Bryce [00:00:35]: So here's the plan. You take 11 o'clock out, this one. As you get the 12 first, okay? On three. Ready? One... I said on three!
    Kincaid [00:01:13]: So much for your intricately calculated travel plans. That's why I was trying to buy some time on your ass. See, I'm safer on my own. There's no way they could have known where we were.
    Bryce [00:01:23]: Oh, they did. And now I know why.
    Kincaid: Is this yours?
    Bryce [00:01:28]: This is your cell phone! Might have taken that off some dead guy. You know they can track a cell phone? That's why I use a ghost chip in mine so they can't track the phone. That's how they know where we were! Here I am, I'm plotting courses all over the country and you're carrying a location beacon in your pocket!
    Bryce [00:01:52]: You don't even understand how 21st-century technology works. I mean, how have you stayed alive this long?
    Kincaid [00:01:58]: Well, all you guys are wasting your time with your planning, and aiming, and deducing. I just do my thing, and my thing has always been better than your fucking thing!
  • Intricately [イントリカットリー]: In a very detailed and complicated manner.

  • Deducing [ディデューシング]: Arriving at a fact or a conclusion by reasoning; drawing a logical inference.

  • Beacon [ビーコン]: A light or other visible/electronic signal that acts as a guide or alerts others to a specific location.

  • Meticulous [メティキュラス]: Showing great attention to detail; very careful and precise.
