The most glam dad-enjoys-while-folding-laundry movie ever.

A blast… The film works because Brad Pitt is a really funny and engaging guy.

All that effort and all that money should have paid for a better screenplay.

Chris Evans, Ryan Gosling and Dhanush fight for your attention. The plot is clichéd, but the Russo brothers deliver a film packed with action, charismatic actors and beautiful locations.

It is a big, noisy, explosive adrenaline rush — a live-action spin on that old “MAD” magazine comic, “Spy vs. Spy” — and about as deep.

TOP CRITIC
The Gray Man strips the best qualities of everyone involved — there’s a lack of personality to the filmmaking, and it’s big for the sake of being big — leaving behind a tasteless pudding that reeks of a cashgrab.

What ensues is overly busy, dumb and riddled with cringingly glib dialogue.

Here we go again with another substandard Netflix action film that seems to take pride in its display of stunning mediocrity.

I really enjoyed that… I thought it was a lot of fun.

The Gray Man is a worthy entertaining flick with enthralling action pieces, nice European cities and two handsome toughies that sustain their handsomeness ever after beating each other up across the globe.

When leaving Bangkok, Six takes a tuk tuk for Chiang Mai. Chiang Mai is located 683 km north of Bangkok. There is no way he could cover this distance in such a short time to the extraction point in an overnight ride.
