I wanted to like it. It had a lot of good ingredients but didn't seem able to bring it all together and figure out what sort of movie it wanted to be. Comedy was infrequent, action was occasional and drama disjointed. And the ending COULD be interpreted to be setting up for a sequel. It wasnt horrible, but the "what if my family/partner discovered I'm a spy/assassin" sub-genre is getting a bit crowded these days, and this isn't the best rendition.

It wasn't bad. But honestly I'm very very disappointed this isn't a TV show. I misread the trailer and wasn't expecting a movie. I think this would have been amazing as TV show. It could have done what the *True Lies* tv show failed to do. It would have done what I expect the upcoming *Mr and Mrs Smith* show will fail to do. Kaley did a solid job as an action character. She's no Megan Fox in *Rogue (2020)* [awful movie but Fox was excellent] but she was solid. I'm not her biggest fan but I don't hate her and, respect where respect is due, her acting was more than okay. David however, like the plot, was under-fulfilled. I think he could have done more with his character of the straightman muggle husband. The script just didn't give any room for it. They did have more chemistry than I expected they would. I saw the trailer and in no way did I think I would buy them as a couple 100%, I was expecting maybe 60% buy in, but I kinda do. Antagonists Bill Nighy and Connie Nielsen were enjoyably bad. Though Connie was under written. I didn't really get that slightly psychotic character from her the way the script seemed to want me to. The tone of the movie was uneven. You're never really quite rocked out of the mood of the movie, but you've never sitting comfortable in it either. *Mr. and Mrs. Smith* the movie was very much a sexy spy "kill a bunch of guys" movie with likes of whiplash pans. *True Lies* the movie was very much an Arnold comedy with a bunch of one-liners and amusing growls. There are others that are more about the romance like say *Mr Right* or *This Means War*. Which are all very much comedic spy stuff with a heavy heavy dose of RomCom. The ingredients were there to make this the variation that focused on Romance with a capital R. I haven't seen one of those in a while and like I said they had the chemistry for it. But the movie wants to be an R-rated comedy so it tries to have it's cake and eat it too. Almost every problem I had with this would have been resolved if it had been a full season length. Heck I might have even bonded with the kids. They could be given personalities and then maybe I'd care when their health is threatened.

Not funny enough to be a comedy, not flashy enough to be an action comedy, not dramatic enough to be anything else. Lack of a general direction seems to really hurt this movie, it wants to be everything and ends up being nothing of value. Shame, one hell of a cast tho.

This is basically a better version of the True Lies (utter bullshit) series. Too bad it's not as a series, but a movie. It does underperform in many aspects unfortunately. First hour of the movie was quite enjoyable, then it got a bit too much like 'its time to wrap-up the storylines'. That was too bad. Would have worked much better as a limited series. Or maybe another season of The Flight Attended.

Surprisingly better than I thought it would be; I truly hope to see Kaley Cuoco in more action roles, as her hand-to-hand scene was well choreographed and executed.
