The Bounty Hunter


Hapless bounty hunter Milo Boyd (Gerard Butler) jumps for joy at the prospect of tracking down his bail-skipping ex-wife Nicole Hurley (Jennifer Aniston), but gets a hard dose of reality when the job proves tougher than anticipated. Every time Milo gets close to resourceful reporter Nicole, she gives him the slip. A high-profile murder has been committed, and Nicole is determined to stay out of jail long enough to crack the case. And she must be getting close, because now someone is trying to take them both out. They may not have been able to make marriage work, but if Milo and Nicole can just stay alive long enough to solve the murder, they might discover they're not such a bad team after all.

It’s an equally unsurprising showing from either of the stars. If you’ve seen any of her rom-coms you’ll know what’s coming from Aniston. It’s a shame her work in independent film (such as 08’s ‘Management’) is not as prolific as her studio output, as here she’s a feistier version of Rachel, just as she was in ‘Love Happens’ and ‘Marley & Me.’ Similarly, those who didn’t see the trailer may think Butler’s character from ‘The Ugly Truth’ has wandered into another film. His crass-but-charming routine wears thin here as it did then, but at least he’s not in a bath of jelly this time.
