A nice light-hearted comedy.

Rating: 8/10 (28 July 2009)

This is a parody of big budget action films but while most parodies fail by either running out of jokes and falling into the same dull plot as what the are parodying, essentially becoming cheap dull copies, or by being overly smug and relying entirely on in jokes this manages to be genuinely funny from start to finish.
The acting is good with a lot of recognisable faces delivering nice comic performances. The pace is unrelenting with action and jokes coming without any real breaks. The plot is silly but not stupid, there are a few surprises and some nice ideas.
The main thing in a comedy is the jokes and the film delivers. The slap-stick is well done and not overused and there are a fair few nice verbal gags and visual ones too and the action sequences are over the top silliness.
A nice entertaining comedy with no real bad points.
