After he reunites with an old school pal through Facebook, a mild-mannered accountant is lured into the world of international espionage.
I can't say enough about this movie. From the action to the comedy to the direction, everything involved was top notch. So refreshing to see Kevin Hart in a more serious role, instead of forcing comedy as many of his movies such as Get Hard become. The real star here though is The Rock who really gets to show off his comedic chops with his goofy and lovable character.
The other great thing is that the trailer did not give away the other cast members of the film. The story is also rewarding as there is solid character development, all of which is can be familiar to many. Something that in a summer action blockbuster is usually non-existent.
Keep an eye out for Rawson Marshall Thurber (Were The Millers and Dodgeball) as he is going to continue to be a rising star.
