This is an action-comedy movie, and it's just a feel-good movie. It's not depressing; rather, it's an enjoyable, chill, and fun movie. Some might not like this type of movie, but there's also people like me who just want to watch action-packed scenes without too much gore, not that violent, and especially obscenity scenes. The bed scenes are just okay, which I like since, as I have said, it is just a family-feel-good movie, and it is appropriate for the movie's theme.
The casting is perfect; I could sense the connection between the characters and each other, and the interaction of the family is very realistic.
The editing is also good, and so far, I have not seen any plot holes. I also love their lines; they wrote the dialogue well. Action scenes are not that repetitive. In that scene where Monaghan broke the bamboo, I really thought she was going to jump, but it was not, and she performed an unexpectable execution.
This movie is recommendable and much more exciting compared to the EX4 lol.

There is no denying this is another take on the Schwarzenegger - TRUE LIES movie.
I think where this film succeeds is in showing how the secrets Dan/Sean kept for all those years impacted his family. From the routine ways in which he showed his wife how much he loved her to the lack of ability to connect with his children.
It is only when he is forced to bring his secrets into the light with his family is he truly able to connect with them.
While it may not feel fresh, this movie does a good job at paying homage to the original as well as offering something new.
Wahlberg, Monaghan, Colletti, and Crosby do a fine job bringing the characters to life in fun and enjoyable ways.
While this movie may not win any awards - it is certainly a fun watch.

This was a cute movie, where Marky Mark (also producer here) is in a physical shape that is truly exceptional, and married to a beautiful wife with only a very civilized age gap. There's product placement, but not too much. There's staggering violence, but it's all squeaky clean so it can be a Xmas movie. All the supporting cast is ethnic just the right amount. The family is flush with tremendous cash, which helps plot advancement as well as beautiful cinematography / scenes.
It was very enjoyable, assuming enough suspension of disbelief. The whole thing is obviously very predictable, but it's executed nicely. Everybody but the teenage daughter is world-class level at something, so while it's promoting family values, it is, for a change, not promoting mediocrity.
I watched this while cycling indoors, was perfect to get me through my winter workout.

Like a family version of Mr & Mrs Smith. We loved it funny and full of action. Crazy fight scenes. Great chemistry between Mark W and Michell M. And they both have endless energy. Also in great shape.
Star of the show is that adorable baby. His sweet little laugh and perfect timing were spot on. Kids of course come around from being always annoyed at their parents and lying to them to being very impressed and learning the true value of family. The Trevor character is everything that's wrong with young people and it's perfect what where he ends up.
Far-fetched of course and a little silly but so what. It was a lot of fun to watch.
Very entertaining.

While this is not a movie where you'll be amazed by the plot it sure delivers on both action and comedy fronts and sometimes that's all we need from a movie: to spend a good time laugfhingh and see good action.
A popcorn movie? Sure, but in a wold where,m save a few exceptions, most movies are very slow burns with crap characters only defined by their gender or secuality I'm just hjappy to see a movie that is just a movie.
It has heart too, Michele Monagan never disapoints and even Mark Whalberg does a hreat job as the father figure.
A fun ride throug and through, jighly recommended in these dark times as we all deserve to crack a laugh.
