UNDER FIRE unfolds in the scorching heat of the US-Mexico border, where rival drug dealers Griff and Abbott (Dylan Sprouse and Mason Gooding) arrive at a remote drop point for a routine drug deal. But when the exchange goes down, both reveal undercover badges--Griff is FBI, Abbott is DEA--and neither knew they were working the same case. Before they can react, a sniper rains down bullets, killing the cartel members and leaving the two agents pinned behind their vehicle. Forced to work together, Griff and Abbott bicker incessantly as they dodge gunfire, each blaming the other for the ambush. Between sharp-witted jabs and heated exchanges, they pry open the cartel's briefcase to find top-secret government documents capable of global devastation. Now, Griff and Abbott must set aside their rivalry and make it out alive--assuming they don't kill each other first.

Under Fire is an enjoyable enough isolated action film, carried by the strong chemistry between its two leads. It never overstays its welcome and delivers just enough action, humor, and tension to please genre fans.

We Live Entertainment

There’s plenty to enjoy about an action flick that knows how serious to take itself, and is supported by slick filmmaking that holds steady for a good 90 minutes packed with ways to keep things fresh, under fire or not.

MovieJawn

Under Fire has a clear target and takes aim; however, that aim is slightly off. Just like anyone with a gun, which is basically everyone in this movie, let’s take a second to all figure out what we’re all actually doing here before pulling the trigger.

Geek Vibes Nation

Even when the script is left in a dust cloud of cliches and derivative planks, Sprouse and Gooding make up for it. They are having a ball, and in turn so are we.

Rated: 6.5/10

For a movie that seems destined to be buried in a streaming library, it’s a surprisingly entertaining ride.

Rated: 6/10

If you can get past the occasional misfire and stretch your credulity at times, there’s a decent amount of fun to be had.

Sad nowdays there are so few real action stars left, and on top of that so few charming charismatic movie stars, these action comedies buddy films like Rush Hour or Lethal Weapon worked because of legendary cast, these Netflix kids that come from famous parents just don't have it, hard to watch.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
