Heist movies need a big cast of bonafide charming movie stars, which don’t seem to exist anymore. This movie is neither bad nor good. It simply exists. I can’t get worked up one way or the other. Perhaps if this was the first film I ever saw, I would be impressed but since I’ve seen a million movies like this, it simply fails to even garner any kind of reaction.
I should have been tipped off by the boring title.
Typical Dwayne and Ryan movie. Had a little laugh, but mostly not entertained. Typical cliches and one liners and, to my surprise, really bad special effects: the bull? Come on....
I really, really wanted to love this - it's been ages since I saw a decent adventure movie, and this has all the right ingredients. Unfortunately, it just never gets exciting or witty or scary. It is actually quite boring (although I must admit I didn't see one of the twists coming). It has to do with the editing, mainly the pacing (there is no need for so much dialogue with such a straightforward plot) and the music score, which is actually quite calming (unintentionally, I'm sure). There are also some continuity issues (e.g. people being bone dry the second they get out of water). Still, if they end up making a sequel, I will watch it.
Its three very likeable actors playing themselves in a movie with guns and car chases. its not exactly trying to be anything more than that. It is exactly what it wants to be.
Reynolds drinking from his Aviator gin brand bottle (label less)
The film is better than I had read reviews in here about. They don't play out 'themselves' too much and the story is enjoyable + the action is decent, varied and inventive.
I've said here before, your can't get prints off a curved surface
Many potential jokes fully executed and a really good adventure film!
Great pacing (lacking from other releases this quarter).
Acting good but the CGI too apparent (just)
7/10
(And you shouldn't store it in rice, keeps the moisture near)

It's like someone fed an AI every modern action comedy and then made it try to write, direct, and cast its own version.chunkylefunga
The Rock plays the Rock and Ryan Reynolds plays Ryan Reynolds.A Sunday afternoon kind of movies. Not amazing but ok for tv.
Imagine a sequel will be made.

Exactly what I have come to expect from Netflix movies -Great marketing, good cast, plenty of hype, awful movie

What a waste. Totally forgettable and by the numbers. All "action" in front of a green screen. How is this 200millon dollars? Lamenowhereman136
