My quick rating 7,3/10. A very impressive movie to say the least. Melissa McCarthy again is hilarious and does so by juggling the part of a Midwest everyday woman and immediately changes on the fly into raunchy one-liners so well. The ease she demonstrates on the screen is wonderful and so fresh in seeing what she calls "big women" movies as not being some stupid vehicle or drawback, just another performance. Along the way in good performances is Jason Statham completely making fun of his own character/real-life persona he is typecast into. It is obvious to tell he enjoyed poking fun at himself. That is only a single name while the rest of the cast top to bottom is extremely solid. Just the beginning of course since the story itself was a nice throwback to the spy genre movies with double-crosses and who is on whose side twists. I am not saying any of these elements were all that surprising but still added to the entertainment value. The action scenes are nicely edited together and make sure to be just unbelievable enough to also elicit a laugh from them. Overall along with sprawling scenes around the globe and production values being top-notch, it is hard to find flaws in such a surprisingly good flick so I'll leave it at, "Check this one out", you will not be sorry.
