Not to be confused with the 1921 American silent mystery film of the same name.

Nobody is a 2021 American action thriller film directed by Ilya Naishuller and written by Derek Kolstad. The film stars Bob Odenkirk, Connie Nielsen, Aleksei Serebryakov, RZA, Michael Ironside, Colin Salmon, and Christopher Lloyd. Nobody was theatrically released in the United States on March 26, 2021, by Universal Pictures.

Plot
Hutch Mansell fails to defend himself or his family when two thieves break into his suburban home one night. The aftermath of the incident soon strikes a match to his long-simmering rage. In a barrage of fists, gunfire and squealing tires, Hutch must now save his wife and son from a dangerous adversary -- and ensure that he will never be underestimated again.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) It is awesome to see Christopher Lloyd back for a couple of while.
 * 2) Bob Odenkirk's performance is great.
 * 3) Out of the film's many action sequences, the very first confrontation on the bus where Hutch absolutely decimates a gang of thugs has become its most iconic due to its brutal nature, excellent action direction and Bob Odenkirk doing all his own fighting, showing exactly how dangerous Hutch is.
