Great Concept, Dismal Execution
8 January 2022
Warning: Spoilers
OK, this is the problem. There is a great concept... two girls who are not spies become involved in the middle of a spy caper. Like The Man Who Knew Too Little... without the good results, without the funny, and without the big stars. In other words, just LOUSY execution. Rule one in any good movie is... the plot has to be funny, and the movie has to give the audience a payoff. This is neither a good spy plot, a thumb drive with secrets on it, nor is it funny. At all. The chase seens have been around for 50 plus years.

Bad casting, really awful writing, and the photography is not winning any awards either. One has to assume the screenwriter is in his twenties and is a big fan of action adventure. And cursing. A lot of unnecessary, blowing through the fourth wall, cursing.

To fix this, you need a brilliant screenwriter, top actors, a good director, but right there that's enough to describe what's wrong. Bad movie. If you have the choice between watching your fingernails grow, or watching this movie, this movie might be your choice. But, if you have a couple bucks or a car that works, you might just want to go to the mall.
