Nell Minow Movie Mom Like its handsome anti-hero, this movie sometimes misfires, but it is easy on the eyes. Rated: B- Sep 19, 2025 Full Review Peyton Robinson RogerEbert.com Allan Ungar’s assassin turned subverted buddy-cop film takes a long time to get on its feet, and once it does, it still stumbles there. It’s a bit of a tropey mess, but the intent is clear: to have fun. Rated: 1.5/4 Sep 19, 2025 Full Review Patrick Beatty ABC4 Utah "London Calling" won’t redefine the action genre, but it’s a breezy, watchable ride. Sep 30, 2025 Full Review Leo Brady AMovieGuy.com London Calling is painfully generic, unfunny, uninspired, and unmemorable. Rated: 1.5/4 Sep 29, 2025 Full Review James Marsh Deep Dive Movie Reviews (YouTube) A loving throwback to the action comedies of the 1980s and 90s...that delivers the action, the banter and the bloodshed, with something more wholesome on the side. Sep 29, 2025 Full Review Ricky Valero FandomWire London Calling is the prototypical underwhelming direct-to-DVD type of movie that isn't the worst thing you can throw on to watch on a random Friday. Rated: 5/10 Sep 29, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Angelique We love this movie, thoroughly entertaining and so funny! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/25/25 Full Review jesse v This movie started out strong, but once it landed to Los Angeles, the writers kept on ham-fisting American references every so often. A gamer goofball in an action movie with an insufferable father and the main character that is somewhat blind but still able to drive. There are CLEARLY two different movies here that got mashed together just for comedy sakes. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/23/25 Full Review Caleb W Banger flick! Super fun!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/29/25 Full Review KC B It’s been years since a movie made me laugh this hard and I mean full-on, tears-streaming, can’t-breathe kind of laughter. London Calling completely caught me off guard in the best possible way. From start to finish, this film is packed with unforgettable moments, razor-sharp one-liners, and action sequences that somehow manage to be both thrilling and hysterical. Josh absolutely nails it, his performance brings heart, humor, and just the right amount of chaos to the screen. What impressed me most was how clever it all felt. The plot keeps you hooked, the comedy lands every time, and the energy never lets up. It’s the kind of movie that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and that’s exactly why it works so well. If you’re into action, comedy, or gunfights with a wink and a punchline, this is 100% your kind of film. Just don’t go in expecting Mission Impossible. this is more fun, more unhinged, and way more memorable. Trust me: watch it with friends, and prepare to laugh. Nice work to everyone who worked on this one. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/26/25 Full Review Gary M Not sure why some of these reviews are so mixed? I went with a friend and both of us thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The characters were hilarious, comedic timing was spot on, and we were entertained from begining to end. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/24/25 Full Review Christina A I am not a big fan of weapon murders comedy. The actors did a good job with the script but to me the script was lacking. The son’s personality is to confusing and strange for the part. Not one of my favorites. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/24/25 Full Review Read all reviews
