This one's a keeper!
Politics aside, I genuinely did not expect this movie to be this good.
The casting is absolutely spot on every actor fits their role like a glove, selling the story without a single weak link.
The writing deserves praise as well, managing to balance sharp humor and clever puns with a storyline that never feels forced or sluggish. There's a clear love for the material that shines through in the smallest details, from the props to the subtle callbacks, showing a real commitment to quality.
The fight choreography is top tier and only gets more impressive as the movie ramps up, evolving from solid to downright spectacular. The gunplay is in a league of its own, easily some of the most inventive and jaw-dropping I've seen in years. As for the vehicular action, it reaches world-class status, delivering creative and satisfying sequences that keep the energy high without ever feeling repetitive.
If there's one area that fell a bit short, it would have to be the special effects, at times they felt merely average, especially considering today's industry standards.
All in all, though, this is an outstanding, silly, and action-packed ride that's absolutely worth your time.

Entertaining, fun, with giggles along the way
Doesn't take itself too serious, an enjoyable flick for what it is.
Priyanka looks a great fit for action roles, she stood out the most. John was fun. Idris was charming as ever. Carla Cugino and Jack Quaid also did a great job in their minor roles.
A well-timed theme for today's climate. Unity is a great message.
I feel like they could have gone a bit deeper and darker into the characters, with some more edge and comedic relief to bring the audience up.
Beautiful scenes in Europe
Special FX and stunts did a great job, editing was on point.
Priyanka is a fine actress, will def keep an eye out for her future projects.

Silly but fun
Predictable straightforward film that's not trying to redefine the genre. John Cena is relentlessly likeable as an out of his depth actor turned politician. Idris Elba puts on a dependably robust performance the best actor in the film by miles but not taking himself too seriously. Priyanka Chopra didn't really add much beyond silly puns but I guess they wanted to try and add a bit of emotional depth to the piece to vary the pace. If you're looking for a light film to watch while playing with your phone on doing the ironing then look no further. It's big. It's brash. It's over the top. And I found it silly but deeply enjoyable.
Action comedy fun to watch
Its a fun to watch action comedy. John Cena as the President of US is hilarious. Edris Elba suits his part as the PM of UK. Priyanaka Chopra as the secret agent probably overshines them both in acting. It started of as a really fun movie with some action, but by the second half it turned into an outright action movie. Would have been better if they would have kept the comedy as main theme througout. Overall still a decent watch. I didnt know that John Cena could act that fine. Lots of helicopters, guns, blasts and some decent action sequences. Story had promise but kind of fizzles away after first half. Still a decent watch.
Finally an easy comedy that is not cheap
I really liked this movie, it goes well for a fun and light evening. Lately most comedies were cheap and i couldn't bear to watch most of them till the end, but not this one, i've got a big grin at the end of it.
All 3 main actors done their job and the choices for the British PM (Idris Elba) and for the President (John Cena) were spot on, also had no idea that Priyanka is that good in action movies. Yeah was no John Wick movie, but i wasn t expecting that either, it delivered for a comedy with some(more) action. A plus would be the special effects, nice job for those.
I would watch a follow up storry for this one :)
