    Funny, original and well made

    Just watched this Netflix comedy and was pleasantly surprised. The production values are high and the writing is funny with lots of laugh out loud moments and good one liners. The story is original with a person who writes a novel about an assassin but his publisher markets it as a true story. Things get quite complicated as he gets caught up in different factions wanting to assassinate the other in Venezuela.

    Kevin James as always amazes with lots of physical dexterity despite his size. Zulay Henao plays a female DEA agent and she has some amusing and snappy action sequences and fight scenes. Her dialog with Kevin James is quite hilarious. Andy Garcia gets quite a few comic roles these days and he is good. Liked Maurice Compte - Colonel Carrillo from Narcos in a supporting role.

    One of the best Kevin James movies.

    Why are on people being so rude to this movie I loved it

    OK I am a loyal Kevin James fan and expected to get a good laugh and good time from this movie and that is exactly what I got I smiled I laughed and had a very good time here Kevin has now proved to us that he can make anything good even a Netflix movie, those aren't usually the best ya know but this however was a very pleasant surprise for me and my family who watched it with me very little swearing or other obejectable content just a good funny and fun family movie wish there were more like it in the world to just enjoy together as a family and laugh together for once in our lifetime of living keep it up Mr James we want more than just the one make another one of them just like this

    This is a good movie, watch it!

    Obviously it's not great, but it's definitely totally fine, give it a watch!

    I love Kevin James, I'll watch anything with this guy in it. Do you like other movies with Kevin James? Because this is another one. The action is well done and I laughed out loud a few times. There are worse ways to spend a Friday night, I promise.

    Kevin James is a writer who people think is actually an assassin but he's so good at writing he becomes the assassin. Someone truly zany came up with this one and it's laugh out loud wild ride funny. It also happens to be shot super nice, which is a total plus!

    Seriously, it's on Netflix streaming right now, what are you waiting for?!

    A lot better than you'd think

    I don't often laugh out loud at jokes in movies, but I did three times in this one. The story is silly, it could have done with a bit of tightening up here and there, but on the whole it's just enjoyable nonsense.

    A solid seven stars.

    A writer is mistaken for an assassin when trying to sell his book.

    First off, this is a good movie. This is an entertaining movie. This is a funny movie. This is a movie that makes you smile.

    No, this isn't the best movie of all time and no it's not going to win an Oscar. But, actually Andy Garcia puts in a very notable performance. He makes his character come alive. Garcia obviously comes from the school of thought, "There are no small roles."

    There is an innocent quality to this movie and I think above all else this is the reason I was left with such a good feeling while watching it. The story moves along well and at a good pace. The story is also believable, for the most part. There are a couple of times in the plot where the movie is asking us to suspend our disbelief a bit too much, but by the time this happens the story worked in some conveniences which makes this more palatable.

    This isn't a perfect movie, but the bottom line is: it is very enjoyable and well made. It knows what it is and doesn't over extend it's reach. And as far as the Netflix original movies with Adam Sandler's company go: it was the best so far!

    I also feel this movie would have done very well in the box office if it was in theaters.

    It has comedy, it has action, romance and good story telling. It's a clever, little lighthearted movie and it deserves a higher rating then it got on here. I honestly feel people are forgetting how to review movies. A movie doesn't have to be dark or brilliant to be good.
