US action comedy in which two best friends are drawn into a conspiracy after one of them discovers her ex boyfriend is a spy.
An innovative genre blend that overcomes its bagginess thanks to sharp character comedy and a wildly appealing central dynamic.
Ostensible leading lady Kunis must know she's playing second fiddle but gamely provides McKinnon with a fine foil. The double-crossing errs on the disinteresting but their charming, credible, often hysterical friendship will see you through.
It’s a promising idea that starts well, and although it starts to flounder by the end, Kunis and McKinnon do sterling work making sure it never completely runs out of energy.
A goofy and energetic buddy movie which never manages to be quite as funny as you expect it to be.
The chemistry of the leads makes or breaks a film like this; luckily Kunis and McKinnon are a blast.
