Perhaps, this is the only way to make the dude shut up and learn something? As a parent, you can't use that didactic strategy though. So, old dad is happy that someone teaches his son valuable lessons. Lesson 1: The world does not revolve around you. That's when Hutch punches him after he bought the factory. Lesson 2: Listen when others speak. One would think that a grown man would know these things, but this is surprisingly hard to teach some people.
I don't think that's the way it was meant. If you play poker, one of the common "side games" people play is to try and take the two worst cards ,2/7, and win. There's even jackpots where you get money if you win and show at the end, but you have to make it to the river. On the surface, to movie viewers, saying it's the 'two worst cards you can be dealt' is very limited. In reality, what it stands for is taking the worst you can be dealt and making something out of nothing. I'm pretty sure the writers were thinking on these lines. It's about getting the job done, no matter the odds.
The fact that this is a deleted scene is absolutely genius XD Is no one else catching that? XD The man is so redacted they deleted the scene about how redacted he is XD
it would be genius if we didnt get this same exact scene in the movie with the russian chick who looke him up. how do ll these ppl know the same bald man in government records? im glad they cut this out. its dumb
pure speculation that I would love to see expanded on. 8&3 cuff links are for auditors still active, 7&2 are what those who retire get tattooed to remind those who know when the dangerous man is about.
@@v44rgtuy0l3 hmm. Probably its a downgrade version of hutch, you have hutch as your worst; the 8&3 guy as the worse then you have some bad in there too.
I appreciate how civilized he was. Made his point and acted like a gentleman afterwards. Just because you have to get your hands dirty doesn't mean you need to be a savage about it.
Incredibly under-rated actor, can do comedy, romance & action films. Hope he gets fleshed out in the sequel, sadly as this was a deleted scene I doubt he'll be in it.
Rule of thumb: If the information your trying to get is labeled "access denied", especially if its government related, stop digging. Otherwise, you'll most probably not like the answer.
If my son-in-law gives me a bag of gold ingots, I would be asking questions about him. Once a sharp dressed 6 4 gent whose looks can kill confronts me, I would stop inquiring about my son-in-law
I would just give my Father in law & Mother in Law A bunch of Gold Bricks and tell them go on a long vacation you two deserve it. My In Laws: wait is there something that your not telling us Son? Me: Let’s just Say I’m just The EVS Tech That Cleans up Messes without people taking a second Look
Well, considering this version happened after Hutch paid his father in law with gold ingots it could still have worked as an after credit scene to hint that Hutch was part of an even bigger group, they just have to alter who the Russians blackmailed, maybe get a different guy
@@heavenlypizza69 the scene of the office guy is the same, just cut out and pasted where a russian hacker was blackmailing him instead to get the files on hutch
Idk about that. I think it’s more like he cleans up the government’s mistakes so the public will never know how corrupt it really is. Not so much sleep peacefully as it is making sure the wool stays pulled over our eyes
Just playin here, Remembering a scene from John Wick: “What? That nobody!” “That f**king nobody…..is Hutch Mansell. A man what you called an auditor, someone you don’t want at your front door, who did wet work for three lettered agencies” 🤣😂
What a great movie. Odenkirk deserves an Oscar. A great plot, great acting, some film veterans and throw in some intelligent interesting comedy and you have Nobody.
@@katmgn3442 Mate, he didn't throw an oscar winning performance here, his acting was pretty basic and nothing special. If this is oscar winning performance for you, then Keanu Reeves should've won like 6 of them, heck any actor who has played a character like this should've won one. Odenkirk is a good actor and all, but this ain't it.
Yes! He always fit that role. He still does those characters in voice acting, as he has passed his prime for those characters. He still is one great actor.
I think all she knows is that he always comes home covered cuts and bruises, and that she should treat his wounds without asking questions. Maybe she did ask a question once, and met the barber.
I thought he was the weakest character in the movie. What was he meant to be? If the Auditor is meant be some ex-Tier 1 operative, then who was the Barber meant to be? He's not SAS/SBS material. And what would a former British black-op guy be doing shadowing a former American operative in America for? Is he meant to be his British goodwill ambassador and wet-nurse or something?
@@SmartCookie2022 If we look at the the movie and make some inferences, it could be stated that both The Barber and The Auditor are a part of an organization that handles covert operations without any government influence. It makes entire sense why you would have a former British SoF member, diversity is a powerful tool and so is experience. Having different operators from different countries/continents leads to connections, experience of locations/climates/operating fields, languages, resources, tools, etc etc.
@@ChaosEldritchPrince007That's the most reasonable guess. They're just titles to agents. Doesn't matter if they were American, British, or Italian or German, they got a title.
John Wick The Equalizer Salt The Bourne Trilogy Atomic Blonde Taken Nobody Jack Reacher Shooter Man On Fire The Accountant Kill Bill I love these kick ass action movies.
As nice as it was seeing more of Michael Ironside, the way they integrated the records guy into the final cut via the sex photo/blackmail was pretty clever.
Don't want to be rude, just expressing my opinion, let's say that the analyst is a new guy, by the look of him, he says he's not familiar with what an "auditor" is, seeing he doesn't have a high level clearance I can believe he doesn't know what the card tattoo meant at first, but when he saw The Barber wrist pins he understood he is out of his league, the father-in-law was a Sargent, seen combat duty probably some place safe, he knew what a special operative agent was but he never met one and we can be sure he doesn't understand like the analyst at first, now the vet, the way he is dressed, how he looks, completely different from the Sargent, that he saw some real fking sht in combat and probably still suffering from PTSD, he most definitely met some auditors in his tour or tours of combat and probably having lots of contact from some of the agencies, maybe after his tours, he recognised the expired ID really fast sadly I didn't see what rank and unit was the Veteran so I can't really tell what he did in his military career in comparison with The Sargent, but this is my opinion, sorry for the long post 😅😅😅
I would imagine that the it was a quick rewrite, the tattoo shop scene edited to have a bit of content with the cards thing that probably wouldnt have been in with this scene in the narrative
a lot of those *Special groups* are just whispers and rumors. usually/probably introduced as a extremely high rank when having to deal with normal military, could be a few been let in on whom they really are if that info is necessary for their mission
I like how "The Barber" gives exactly the same kind of gut-punch as The Auditor did. And to the same guy. That would have made the one we see in the film much funnier.
I have one here at this house and it's only here because we lost a much older (and, frankly, better looking) one in the move from the previous house. Sometimes it's not about efficiency so much as novelty or an eccentric attachment to the little things. The feel and sound of rotary phones are both pleasant and comforting in the oddest way.
I have one…….a wall mounted 554 Western Electric. Still works great (see now why the federal gov busted up the Bell System)…….. base was made in the 70’s
the older the device, the more chances of it being untraceable, un-hackable and so on. Plus, lesser chances of it existing in digital records, so yeah, more anonymity. Trust me, I've seen a lot of computer engineers around me using keypad phones, and not because they're poor. It's just that they're not connected to umpteen accounts and apps, which diminishes the vulnerability. Just a thought, you may disagree.
this is very interesting, it explains a bit the origin and meaning of the tattoo, maybe they could have put a shorter version of these scenes in the movie.
Well, the Men in Black paying a visit after inquiry was bit obvious and may be too elaborate to figure out how to make it interesting to keep scenes. But , man... the guy is intimidating for sure.
Yeah, that could have been written and acted a little more subtle, and it would have been a lot better. Just having the clerk have a screen come up saying his account was locked and he needed to report to internal security would have been plenty.
Funny how Ironside isn’t even trying to be invasive, he’s just curious. But even then, he still fully knows it’s way above his pay grade to keep asking
For anyone wondering why he had the similar numbers to hutch they where most likely in the same squad. Like on operation overlord a group of paratroopers shaved their heads like Native American warriors would.
Wish they had kept the first scene in one or another way. It does add quite a bit to the previous scene with when the war veteran saw his tattoos. I am no poker expert or know much about the game, so the initial meaning of the two cards eludes me (only later with a bit of digging) did I learn it's meant to be the worst cards you can be dealt in poker. Now as someone who doesn't know this. When I saw the cards first time in the veteran scene I just thought "ah he must be some kind of special ops" but if with this scene and poker information that initial assumption would develop into "oh he's the kind of guy the send into words odds to get shit done" which has an heavier impact on how dangerous he really is. But then by this point in the movie, I'd say that this has also been estasblished
that plot hole can be solved pretty easily with one or two line like "honor to 'serve' under you sir" establishing that vet is some kinds of underling and one of the low rank officer in hutch departement, but i think "thank, you for your service" is enough of explanation that the vet knows what hutch and what he represent
Same. I get why they took it out as it does slow down the pacing a bit, but for anyone who doesn’t know poker you’re completely left in the dark. I had to Google a bit to find a breakdown of what that tattoo meant and why it was important to have.
isnt that the point? to build up the tension before morei nfo is revealed. when the veteran apologised and left, we get an idea he's not this simple doormat guy. why would they just reveal from the beginning who he is?
Pretty much when your deal with a bad hand the odds are against ya put that term into what ever special black ops shit these guys went through, means they did shit that were not in the favor if you sent a normal squad of soldiers.
I never did find the significance of the cards, except it was the worst hand ever dealt in Texas hold ‘em. And the Barber had them other pair, which makes it more intriguing. I do hope they make a sequel or prequel which explains the story of the “Auditor” or “Barber”, and Hutch’s brother and dad
I think I understand what the significance of the cards, I feel like it’s also like a calling card that your time is up, I mean it is the worst hand ever dealt in Texas hold ‘em, it’s like life just dealt you a bad hand and the auditor is here to collect
I think it has something to do with their unit. Auditor starts with an A so he has a 2 and a 7 Barber with a B and his cards are 3 and 8 ... Other member of the unit
@@UnderPressureGr oh snap, bro thats actually more dope than what I said, because that actually makes a lot of sense since they’re government assassins, nice breakdown btw 👌🏾
So you sayin' the Barber knew about the Pentagon dude digging up files, got to him in time to retract some files, then made it to the bar in time, which could be potentially anywhere all in the time it took this guy to take a piss? People say he would make a great Bond (which, tbf, he does) but I'm just here thinking he would make a great Batman instead.
You do know specific searches get flagged up. When you search up something dodgy that is a threat to National security it would be flagged up. If it’s serious enough, a case would be opened. Nothing you or I do is a secret even behind an anonymous account. Also, a man like the barber has plentiful resources to get around and find exactly where people are.
How about the fact that 95% of deleted scenes should have STAYED in the movie. As an American, I get very salty about Hollywood's assumptions regarding my attention span and interest. Keep them in.
What I like about this movie is how the opening scenes show the repetition and monotony of what is my daily life too. Sad part it’s the movie was also shot in my hometown
@@henriquetelles36 you forget that Bond has to be a British actor, not an American actor. Keep this in mind, the Bond series had never had an American actor.
Best part....if that would have been a security audit at work for that agent, he would have been fired. Just handing over strictly confidental documents to an unknown person? WTF are you doing boooy?
An argument could be made that the unknown person not only had the clearance to be in that room but was notified that a certain file had been requested.
Did anyone else notice all other staff had been made to leave the floor. This is not possible without heavy hitters being present. The fact every bloody page is redacted.
I wish they kept the scenes in the movie or at least the explanation for the tattoo. I must be an idiot because I felt out of the loop when the old vet saw the tattoo and instantly knew what it meant and got the fuck out of there.
I felt that it was better that way, John Wick style. It's boring I'd they tell you out right, instead the old guy said "f*ck this sh*t I'm out." And later we got a random scene of the bald guy getting blackmailed with his _escapades_ and we find out that the tat probably means body stackers.
The Archive guy was thinking about an accountant when the father in law mentioned the word 'auditor'. This ties in with the song sung by the Russian girl on the stage at the club in Yulian's first scene in the movie. The English translation for the title of that Russian song (Бухгалтер) is accountant.
Rule of thumb in ANY government system... as soon as "Access Denied" shows up on the screen.... you're fucked. Make yourself disappear or someone will do it for you.
Crazy how putting in the name Hutch Mansell tells you not only that's an important name but also that there is 0 chance for any other member of the government to have the same name
Actually in the cia the term auditor means "people who do assasinations for the cia but on records *doesnt work for the cia at all and you can access any information about them aka ghosts * , like what liam neeson was in the movie TAKEN "
2:12 In the lowest left hand corner of the screen you see his shirt, because the footage was copy/pasted from the cut that made it to print where this character is being blackmailed instead of doing 'sarge' a favor.
I KNEW IT! That voice, the old guy's voice, I knew it was from some character I loved, and I was right. His name is Michael Ironside, the voice of Sam Fisher from the Splinter Cell series, he's a goddamn legend!
Great scene. We all know how ruthless and savage the Russian mob is. We all know the egos and tempers. When the young female 'hacker' opens the bosses door, throws the files in and says fuck paying me I quit. That's when you know what she found was worse than anything they might threaten
These scenes kinda do what I was missing in the movie... a build up to the development of the character, that all wasn't what it seemed to be... they kinda took the easy approach, could've been much more in depth.
@@WHJeffB Yes, but it's almost comical. You run like that if you find out the house you are in is being painted for a drone strike, not because your employer decided to tango with one bad, horrible motherfucker.
