The Long Kiss Goodnight

Geena Davis and Samuel L Jackson. He said in 2019 that it was his favorite role. It was released after a flop for Davis and director Renny Harlin (then her husband), and may have had poor press related to that.

It has an unlikely hero, plenty of action sequences, some fun performances (I had to pause it after a funny line from Brian Cox cracked me up), and heart. Solidly entertaining. But low expectations might help.

This appears to be a 14500 lithium ion cell (same physical size as AA), putting out 3.7v for a device like this flashlight that supports it. No voltage step down, just charging circuitry on-board.
