Review of Central Intelligence (2016) by Gordon H — 15 Jul 2016
A Little Crude, but Laugh Out Loud Funny!
Originally Written July 15, 2016--.
Bullied as a teen for being overweight, Bob Stone (Dwayne Johnson) shows up to his high school reunion looking fit and muscular. While there, he finds Calvin Joyner (Kevin Hart), a fast-talking accountant who misses his glory days as a popular athlete. Stone is now a lethal CIA agent who needs Calvin's number skills to help him save the compromised U.S. spy satellite system. Together, the former classmates encounter shootouts, espionage and double-crosses while trying to prevent worldwide chaos.
What a hilarious film! Hart is hysterical, as always, but Johnson has surprisingly sharp comic timing as well. I really loved the chemistry between them. The film is a little on the crude side, but it is guaranteed to make you laugh out loud!
