RED NOTICE

Staring an A-list cast of Ryan Reynolds, Dwayne Johnson, and Gal Gadot, RED NOTICE tells the story of master thief Reynolds who gets busted by FBI agent Johnson and their pursuit of another master thief, Gadot. All of them are after 3 priceless eggs that belonged to Cleopatra that were gifted to her by Mark Antony. The whereabouts of 2 are known, however, the third eggs location has been lost to history. Jet setting around the world and multiple continents, this is your typical formulaic action film. Nothing breaking new ground or standing out, action scenes are lacking, and Reynolds & Johnson both play their stereotypical selves. Reynolds as the funny man, Johnson as the brute who gets a few one liners in as well. The only one of the trio not regurgitating former roles is Gadot as she plays the villain and even though it's lighthearted, she seems to be having fun with it and I'm glad she at least changed things up a bit. Not bad if catching this on Netflix but there are also better options around. 6/10
