The Death and Life of Bobby Z


Paul Walker is an looser, no not really, but his character is. A legend named Bobby Z has died so now the DEA has to replace Tim Kerney (Walker) for Bobby Z. The only problem, ok, the biggest problem is Bobby Z was a legend selling drugs. So now a lot of people wanna see the new Bobby dead.

I have seen Paul Walker in three movies now recently; Into the blue, Lazarus project and now this. He does his job well in all thoose movies. The Death and Life of Bobby Z is however an mixture between the Bourne trilogy (Matt Damon). Not that the script is as complpexe as thoose, but knowing that the main character knows more or less nothing about the situation he´s thrown into. And the action/fighting scenes are somewhat familiar to what Jason Bourne is doing.

But as in the Bourne trilogy the character is more or less all over the world, Tim Kerney mostly is in south California or Northern part of Mexico. I think this movie is worth to watch. Rent before you buy.

Joaquim de Almeida has an great appereance as Don Huertero; the great Mexican druglord, you might remember him from Desperado where he played Bucho. If you haven´t, you should watch that movie.
