Funny movie GUN SAFETY ISSUES
jdhock-11-75213722 February 2022
The movie is funny but the scene with the COMPLETELY IGNORANT GUN SAFETY VIOLATIONS IS WRONG! The way the character treats a loaded gun is downright WRONG! It's hard enough these days to uphold our 2A rights without scenes like this giving those who are against guns more reasons to complain. Again, great comedic scenes, plot etc., but that gun scene needs to be cut!

Elderly people falling is not a joke
lestradedoyle1 January 2021
While I really enjoy Leland Klassen as a comedian and actor, the script was offensive. They make repeated jokes about an elderly man falling down stairs. I couldn't finish the film. The plot had potential, but the low budget music and forced awkward silences showed the filmmaker's inexperience. Some of the gags were a good idea, but poorly executed. Jokes about dementia and the elderly have to be handled with more nuance and heart, while these seemed cold and distant. Would not recommend.

Excruciating

Incredibly boring. The story takes ages to get somewhere and is completely underwhelming. The 'comedy' is unfunny and annoying.

It's silly and cute
jjafabio30 December 2023
So whoever wrote the review saying that elderly people falling isn't funny and making jokes about it is horrible....actually, I believe the writer of this movie agrees. I'll explain: when the simpleton co-worker makes said comments, you can see that the main character doesn't think it's funny as evidenced by his responses. Why put it in the script? To point out that making these types of jokes aren't funny. So, you didn't watch the rest of the movie all due to a misunderstanding.....sad. The movie is pretty funny. It has a similar style to movies like Airplane and The Naked Gun, except not quite so ridiculous in the exaggerations, and it's child friendly. My husband has seen it a few times and still laughs hysterically, so it's a win in my book.

Funniest Movie I've Seen In A Long Time
mastin-428519 July 2022
I highly recommend this movie. It's a comedy about a guy who gets a chance to fulfill his lifelong dream of becoming a spy. Leeland Klassen is a revelation as one of the funniest new actors to hit the big screen, an up and coming master of physical comedy and side-splitting antics.

Judging from the previous reviews, it seems that mainstream Hollywood has sent a posse of scolds to nitpick and badmouth the movie to prevent people from discovering that comedy need not be dirty or foul-mouthed to be entertaining. Once you've watched it, you'll be scratching your head and asking yourself what they're talking about.

My wife and preteen son and I couldn't stop laughing. The acting is top notch, with excellent physical comedy and an entertaining if inane plot line (the kind you expect of good comedies) that acts as a vehicle for setting up the non-stop string of clean comic situations. It's so funny and well-made it could have been very successful as a mainstream Hollywood release. The best part is, it's available for free on the same social media site that made cat videos famous. Make some popcorn tonight and get the family together for a hilarious family-friendly movie night.

great Christian comedy/spy movie
sugarpooch1 April 2024
I wish there were more Christian movies like this. I'm not too much in the slow progressive movies, that a lot of Christian movies tend to have (just my opinion). And I've seen a lot of end time movies, which I'm tired of. This movie was a breath of fresh air. It was funny, but cheesy at times. Some times the camera would move around (that's from not having the camera mounted but instead they had the camera man hold it --I have a friend that's been a cameraman for decades). I would like to see more scifi and comedy from Christian writers/producers/directors. Tired of having to watch big name movies with lots of cussing and sexual innuendos in them. Just want some good, clean movies to watch, especially some with good godly content.
