An Ultra-Violent Spy Movie for Adults who Wish They Never Grew Up

Rating: 8/10 (28 November 2015)

...But not for me. Firstly, I would like to say that I can easily understand how this would be many peoples' favourite film because of its uniqueness in the spy genre category and its A-Class cast with Samuel L. Jackson, Colin Firth and Michael Caine. It is very funny at times, but really, its outrageously unrealistic and easily dislikeable. The violence is over-the-top and very comedic, more so that need be. This film is great for when you're in that perfect, relaxed mood with friends. But otherwise, its a shame that the spy genre has come to something like this. The summary title really sums this film up. A film I personally wish I loved, but not to be. 5.0/10
