This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just like the bullets in this movie, there are 50 million attempts to hit the target and not a single one hits the mark. Acting, jokes, special effects, plot, etc are attrocious.

Reynolds literally had access to a warehouse full of unguarded priceless nazi treasures ready for the taking and completely ignored them for a stupid egg that has only one buyer.

This is thunder force level bad.… Expand

Don't expect some big meaningful movie, its a comedy. It's just fun to watch. Story is wacky but has some heart. Enjoy it for what it is.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just watched Red Notice and it was pretty entertaining; story wise it was pretty generic and the visual effects weren't great but the screenplay specifically the dialogue was pretty funny and the performances from Ryan Reynolds, Gal Gadot, and Dwyane Johnson were superb also that twist at the end that Hartley and Black are a couple and were working together the whole time was outstanding I never saw it coming.… Expand

It's been a busy couple of weeks, Streamers! Now, we finally got a chance to sit down and watch an unlikely trio make streaming history with Red Notice. Gal Gadot, Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson bring this Netflix flick so muchIt's been a busy couple of weeks, Streamers! Now, we finally got a chance to sit down and watch an unlikely trio make streaming history with Red Notice. Gal Gadot, Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson bring this Netflix flick so much star power it's unbelievable. Red Notice is about when Interpol issues its highest warrant for an art thief, who has pilfered rare Cleopatra pieces, and the chase to capture the illusive criminal. The FBI's top profiler, John Hartley (Dwayne Johnson), jumps into this case pursuing Nolan Booth (Ryan Reynolds), but they quickly become partners in this pursuit. Both try to find, and outsmart, the world's greatest art thief "The Bishop" (Gal Gadot) in order to retrieve the rare pieces and restore their credibility. Oh, does adventure and action ensue afterward. Let's see how it turned out.

I'll be upfront with this review, no need to hide it - this movie was quite entertaining. Was it the perfect big screen film? No. I found Ryan Reynolds to get annoying at times and the movie felt longer than what it really was with all the twists and turns, scene changes, etc. But boy was it jammed packed with action and comedy though! Viewers will find when there isn't action going on, they are probably chuckling and vice versa. This movie reminds me of classics like Die Hard and Die Hard with A Vengeance or even the Indiana Jones series. I think that's saying a lot. Those movies weren't perfect either, but you can watch them a million times and they never get old. These films are filled with star power, clever writing, action, and a quest that just keeps you on the trail to the end.

Moreover, how can you go wrong with our top 3 stars? I know Gal Gadot wasn't that successful with WW84 but that was more the writers and DC Comics' fault than her. She's elegant and fierce at the same time and it shows on the screen. Dwayne Johnson continues to prove he has a certain range, but he's very good at what he does. Yes, he's a bit stiff and would probably stand out in a crowd, if this were real life situations, but on the screen he's a great main guy. Ryan Reynolds just does what he does. Like I said, he gets a bit annoying vocally but, ultimately, his quips and tirades are funny. I can't tell if it's the writing or his ad libs that make him funny but it works. All of them together have a lot of chemistry and I bet it was a fun set to be on. While I like the Kevin Hart/Rock combo a bit more, I definitely wouldn't be mad at another Rock/Deadpool movie - especially since this movie sets us up for a sequel. I'd definitely watch. I feel like this movie could lead to a series that is an Ocean's Eleven type feel but maybe like an MCU.

Anyway, Red Notice is the perfect Saturday/Sunday "I'm bored" just throw something on film, or the "I need something on in the background" film. That might sound like a slight, but I think viewers will find themselves watching this over and over again should this play on FX, USA, TNT, TBS or etc. The film is funny, full of action, a plot that's just confusing enough to keep you guessing. For that, this movie definitely gets a big box of popcorn whether in the theaters or on Netflix.… Expand

But all three performances are awful. None of the characters gives you any incentive to care about them. All bundled together with a script that shows us everything what is wrong with Hollywood.

Ryan Reynolds plays a stock Ryan Reynolds type and churns out a literally non-stop deluge of flat jokes that writer-director Rawston Marshall Thurber clearly thought was hilariously clever, Dwayne Johnson seems to be going through the motions in a similarly stock role as himself, and Gal Gadot pops up throughout to deliver repeated "I somehow anticipated your every move (by reading ahead in the script)!" pantomime villain turns

The plot is pure nonsense, the whole thing is clearly written by someone with absolutely no understanding of anything to do with Interpol, law enforcement or basic common sense, and there's no sparkle of wit or particularly entertaining setpieces to elevate Red Notice to comparisons with the Mission: Impossible type capers that it so painfully tries to emulate

You've seen this film at least a dozen times before if you've watched literally any of the many C-list projects that Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds pay their bills with between real projects - you really don't need to waste your time with this one when there are so many better versions of this movie that already exist, and that weren't written by a five year old imagining how professional adults act

I honestly feel embarrassed for anyone who gave this dreck a positive score, because you deserve better and you don't even seem to have the capacity to understand why… Expand

Well this was the most Hollywoodist of Hollywood movies I've been subjected to for quite some time. Not that I'm surprised really, I mean look at the cast, literally the most generic Hollywood A-list casting you could sloppily throw togetherWell this was the most Hollywoodist of Hollywood movies I've been subjected to for quite some time. Not that I'm surprised really, I mean look at the cast, literally the most generic Hollywood A-list casting you could sloppily throw together without trying. Yeah these big names should easily bring us in some dough, story? Plot? Who cares, anything will do.

So what we have here is yet another James Bond-esque, Mission: Impossible-esque action comedy (even with some blatant Indy clonage) with all the usual trimmings. Just take a look at this thing. We skip from one exotic location to another like a videogame. An artic fortress, a dense jungle, sunny Spain, tropical islands, a temple, an underground mine etc...All the while our three main characters, Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot, and Ryan Reynolds look super glossy and sexy. The entire movie is literally one super slick highly choreographed action sequence after another with terrible CGI effects and blatantly obvious greenscreen shots.

What's more, the action sequences are so mind-numbingly stupid and again so generic it's boring. Gal Gadot's character is obviously the best at everything because of course. Johnson is Johnson like he is in absolutely everything. Whilst Reynolds merely does his mind-mannered soft comedy routine which is admittedly amusing at times but not original. Nothing here is original, we've seen all this before time and time again. The whole thing plays out and looks like a videogame for of pretty people with nice bods. And the entire double-cross surprise angle which occurs numerous times is not clever despite how much the writers and director think it is.

So yeah, cookie-cutter, run-of-the-mill, factory production line, wash rinse repeat etc...All these terms cover this overly unexciting mundane star-studded makeup-heavy bonanza. It's virtually 'True Lies' for 2021 except it rips off a multitude of other movies and franchises and has absolutely no edge to it, no kills, no blood, nothing. Painfully soft safe glossy fluff.… Expand
