★★★½ (out of 5) Recommendation: Perfect for a night in when you want to turn your brain off and laugh. Stick around for the credits, which feature real-life high school superlatives of the cast—a sweet, hilarious touch that encapsulates the film’s surprisingly warm heart.
The set pieces are genuinely fun. From the climactic scene where Bob casually catches a bullet (a scene that still makes audiences gasp and laugh simultaneously) to the chaotic shootout in the office, the stakes feel real, but the tone remains light. The film knows exactly what it is. It doesn't try to be a gritty political thriller; it uses the spy genre as a playground for these two actors to bounce off one another. movie central intelligence
