To be honest, I'd watch Ryan Reynolds clipping his toenails for 2 hours, so you can count me in.

I have mixed feelings on this, I don't know if it's just because I was shattered but I feel like it would have been so much better if it was shorter. I found it really, really dragged towards the end and I was struggling to keep my eyes open but other parts were so enjoyable so it's a shame I felt that towards the end. Ryan and Sam basically just played exaggerated versions of themselves but it was fun to see them banter off each other, they had great chemistry. However, My real highlight was Salma Hayek who stole the show with a limited amount of screentime, it's just a shame her scenes were so isolated from the main plot, it would have been nice if she was a bit more involved and we got to see more of her character. Overall, I enjoyed the comedy/fun side of things but the action had too much shakey-cam and the plot was not interesting enough to require a two hour run time so I wish they had shortened it a bit sad.gif

Thoroughly enjoyed this one, one of the best films of the year so far, a good-natured romp which relies heavily on the banter between Ryan & Samuel's characters. Salma Hayek was also fun in a limited role. Main criticism is the end action sequences went one-too-many, but more than made up for by the gags. 7/10
