I thoroughly enjoyed this series! Arnold Schwarzenegger is amazingly funny in this, and there's an assortment of colourful side characters that all really add to the fun. The family dynamics of the actual family here but also CIA team family are a joy to watch.
But I particularly enjoyed the villain, too. I hadn't seen the actor in anything else before but he has an amazing presence and voice and managed to not make the character feel cartoonish, despite his over-the-top evil plan and the fact that this is largely a comedy anyway. You could take him seriously which really held together the plot which was a bit illogical and stupid sometimes. Overall I can definitely recommend this for a weekend-bingewatch.

I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. That's mostly thanks to Oscar Isaac and Ben Kingsley who did a phenomenal job as always and carried the whole movie.
Not a flawless film, but nevertheless a very exciting, unusual, important one. The biggest mistake in my opinion is depicting Hitler as a lifeless weak character because it reduces the danger of him as a "villain".
