MY REVIEW

What I Like:  

• Halle Berry and Mark Wahlberg - what a combination
• A fun movie to watch

What I Don't Like:

• Somehow I have a feeling that this movie is just a feeder movie for both - the script and direction is not great

Will I Watch It Again: No, not my go-to. 

Overall: 3.9/ 5.0
