Most unoriginal crime/comedy, done a billion times before, not necessarily better, but with less pretentiousness. You know who the three leads are and two of them are sort of unbearable, Reynolds wisecracking non-stop without being funny in the least and Gadot as the coolest, sexiest (and most pretentious and unlikely) thief in the world. The Rock is playing it straighter, as the alleged FBI profiler pursuing criminals around the world, but I wouldn't consider it award-worthy.
It is that type of movie where scenes take place all around the world, each geographical shift announced in large, red letters screaming LONDON, BALI, VALENCE or whatever, each location being only a pathetic excuse to drag the plot along a little more. Said plot should be about recovering three golden eggs that belonged to Cleopatra, but when I wrote that, I realized how stupid it sounds, because it is stupid. It could have been about recovering Plato's papyrus or Caesar's chessboard, anything just as absurd and stupid sounding...
The movie played on Netflix until the end only because hubby watched it, while I played a videogame and wondered if Reynolds was ever going to shut up.
