Adetayo A @RT80138779 Jun 25 Back in Action is a fun and exciting action movie that delivers exactly what fans of the genre are looking for. From the beginning, the movie keeps the energy high with great action scenes, thrilling moments, and a story that keeps you entertained throughout. What I enjoyed most was the chemistry between the characters, the humor mixed with the action, and the way the movie maintained its excitement from start to finish. The action sequences were impressive, and the performances made the experience even more enjoyable. The movie does a great job of combining comedy, suspense, and action into one entertaining package. It is the kind of film that keeps you smiling while also keeping you engaged with every scene. Overall, Back in Action was a fantastic watch for me. It is exciting, enjoyable, and full of memorable moments. A well-deserved 10/10. See more Peter F @RT28007450 Jun 13 Still searching for the words to describe how bad this is. My son (14) insisted on watching it after seeing the title and saying it is so terminally lazy and bad he'll need to see it for a 'so awful it's funny'-experience. He enjoyed it as such - I didn't. The real problem isn't even the predictability or that it lacks a single atom of originality (you've seen EVERYTHING here a zillion times already). What makes this one painful is the breathtakingly bad implementation: the mostly horrible acting, the train wreck of writing on all levels imaginable; the dreadful dialogue; the cringe, deeply unfunny 'humor'. The ridiculessness that permeates everything here. Even the fight scenes and stunts are bad. Amateurism, cost-consciousness and 'we don't give a sh$t'-vibe through and through. And they are right, after all: this rotting carcass of a movie gets 60% from audiences on RT. Avoid at any cost.

See more Genesis W. @genstone May 23 I liked the comedy, but there was too much dialogue that was just not helpful. The characters were very unlikable. For professional CIA agents, all the spies in this film were very VERY bad at being spies. I kept feeling nuance to so many other movies, like Indiana Jones or Despicable Me. Just not a good film, not worth the two hours. See more Alexander F @MissaLyssa May 11 It's ok i guess, but very predictable both in plot and humour and just generally very middling. If you have nothing better to watch, you probably wont regret watching so it may be worth it then... but if you have other stuff to watch, it's better to just skip on this.

What Worked: Diaz and Jamie Foxx's natural chemistry is easily the biggest highlight. Glenn Close as a gun-toting MI6 sniper grandma adds some awesome veteran gravitas. Through my Methodist faith lens, watching a married couple lean on their bond to fiercely protect their kids hit a solid chord with my values on marriage and family. The Cuts: The sheer amount of location hopping totally threw off the pacing for me; once they hit London, the story just spins its wheels with unnecessary exposition. Keeping it spoiler-free, the main betrayal twist is a super tired trope that makes the stakes completely predictable. Also, the awkward camera angles used to hide Foxx's body doubles during his medical emergency took me right out of the movie. Verdict: A loud spy comedy that wastes a great cast. Okay for mindless background noise. See more Read all reviews
