Glen Powell’s mega-watt charisma made Hit Man a romantic-crime-comedy hit and Twisters more fun than an unimaginative redux had any right to be. But it couldn’t enliven last year’s creaky Chad Powers or leaden The Running Man.
His magnetism once again shines brightly in How to Make a Killing, although it’s served only partially well by this cautionary tale of money, murder, and one man’s efforts to homicidally seize his family’s fortune.
In Powell and Margaret Qualley, writer/director John Patton Ford (following up 2022’s Emily the Criminal) has two headliners with charm to burn. Yet ultimately, he doesn’t fully maximize their talents.
