Woof. I think they were going for fun quirky spy thriller, but it's just bad. And not bad in a way that is entertaining. All the characters and all the premises are just so stupid, and it looks so bad it's distracting, and it's boring on top of it all.

Cringe worthy nonsense, loaded down with puerile premise after puerile premise, predictable, done to death action and irritating characterisations. I managed about half of this before walking away. The US entertainment industry really is a bit of a bad joke these days.

What a disappointment. It tried to be a little Long Kiss Goodnight, Bullet Train, Bugs Bunny and James Bond. The CGI is horribly bad. Love Dallas in most things but in this she was fine as the author character but so unbelievable as the action spectacular spy. Sam Rockwell was great, as usual and the rest did a serviceable job but the story was horribly executed. The colorful, smoke bomb, ballet gunfire gauntlet scene was absurd. And what's with the repetitive use of the new Beatles tune? Didn't fit and slowed the action down. And the use of Henry Cavill and John Cena was confusing, silly and not needed. Promising beginning that crashed and burned.
