Gioco di ruolo

Role Play is a pretty bad comedy action film about a wife who is an assassin and hiding the secret from her husband and family. Until her past catches up to her and she has to step in and fight for her familys safety.

The plot is forgettable with its tedious script. The plot is similiar to The Family Plan except at least the humor and fun in that film is worth watching. This film lacks the humor and when it tries for laughs it is just pure awkward. The action sequences are boring. The cast ensemble is forgettable. It is nice to see Katey going for the action role. But the script and direction gives them nothing to work with.

It is a boring action film that has a eh story. Boring action and tedious performances.

People nowadays cannot enjoy a fun movie at home they only want to see masterpieces! Like if they can tell one. We'll this movie does the job to keep you entertained and stick to the plot, enough for me, I'm not an effing Oscar critic, just an average movie watcher that wants to have a good time watching a fun and well done movie, this is one of many.. Enjoy it! Don't read the so wannabe critics! They exhaust themselves talking about nonsense that doesn't add anything of what you should really enjoy, the movie is fun, entertaining and has a good storyline, that's enough for a good weekend watch!

Emma and David have been married for seven years and, after returning from yet another 'boring business trip' she forgets their anniversary. Thinking it is time to spice things up a little they decide to have a little role play. They separately head to an upmarket New York hotel where they plan to enter under assumed names and pretend they are strangers meeting for the first time. Unfortunately David is delayed and Emma finds herself being chatted up by an older man. Nothing is quite what it seems; he has recognised her and her secret life, that of an international assassin, is about to be exposed! She must go on the run as David tries to come to terms with what he is told. They will be reunited but the danger, for them and their two children, is far from over as Emma's employers are determined she won't walk away from her work.

I thought this was fairly fun even if it isn't as action packed or violent as one might expect for the genre. The plot isn't the most original but it serves well enough with some mildly tense moments as well as a degree of humour. Kaley Cuoco does a solid job as Emma, I think she has what it takes to make the action believable. David Oyelowo is fun as David, especially as he gradually learns just what his wife can do. Given that it isn't particularly violent, there isn't an excessive amount of strong language and here is no sex or nudity it can be enjoyed as a family film with older children; I'd say anybody old enough to watch the likes of 'James Bond' is old enough for this. Overall I wouldn't say this is a must watch but I did enjoy it so would recommend giving it a go.

Can't understand the negativity around this film.

It's not supposed to be taken seriously, it's just a fun movie that doesn't expect you to be gripping your seat arms or biting your nails wondering what's going to happen next.

Kaley Cuoco is as good as she always is, especially as she found out she was pregnant whilst shooting it, and has good support from the rest of the cast throughout the movie, especially from David Oleyowo who I've never seen before.

Connie Nielson is always a good watch and she puts her all into the role.

So just sit back with a glass of wine and some popcorn and forget everything else for a while and enjoy the entertainment.

This is basically a gender swap of Mark Wahlburg's "Family Plan", but without the same level of humor or action. The lead actors are fine, the action sequences are well done but waaaay too short. The story is predictable, the humorous bits garner a chuckle at best. It's great to see Kaley branch out, but this doesn't come close to her performance in "Flight Attendant" on Apple TV. I think she deserves a bigger audience, and I'll continue waiting for her to find that true breakout role so she'll no longer just be Penny from The Big Bang Theory. As others have said, it makes for some fine background noise, but ultimately is pretty forgettable.
