About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a chaotic, light crime farce with lots of characters colliding and rapid-fire gags, similar in spirit to RED 2; Not for you if you need smart, consistent humor or a focused story.
Pros: big ensemble cast; nonstop goofy energy; occasional quotable one-liners | Cons: uneven laughs; messy overcrowded plot; jokes feel juvenile
