About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a silly, undemanding spy-comedy with slapstick, shootouts, and a familiar amnesia setup, similar in vibe to Blue Streak or Taxi; Not for you if you want sharp suspense or tasteful humor.
Pros: a few solid laughs; light spy spoof; some action beats | Cons: uneven low-brow humor; messy, confusing plot; offensive tropes noted
