Tom's Guide Verdict: 'Normal'
- Rating: ★★ stars
- Verdict: "Normal" stars Bob Odenkirk as an unassuming action hero once again. But it lacks the magic of "Nobody" or the over-the-top fun of "Nobody 2." It's fine, for the most part, but it's also forgettable, despite a series of bloody kills.
- Where to watch: See "Normal" in theaters now
"Normal" is Bob Odenkirk's latest attempt at action stardom, and I had tempered optimism going into this movie. The comedic actor has long since proven his range, first in the drama series "Better Call Saul" and then in the action thriller "Nobody." There's no denying he can be an aging action star along the lines of Liam Neeson and Jason Statham (though more the former than the latter). And in "Normal," he was once again partnering with writer Derek Kolstad, who also wrote "Nobody" and "Nobody 2."
