I generally love guy Ritchie's movies. I do... I love the cast. But i couldn't get through more than 10 minutes of this movie because of it's blatant disregard for reality. It's disrespect and misrepresentation for a country and its people. I get that Hollywood loves making real countries and people it's villains. The evil Russian, German and Arab trope is getting annoying though. Do they not realise demonising a culture is problematic? I could still stomache the evil german Captain that deserved death. But the faulty Nazi Map, the comments about German food being pushed onto locals etc. i mean, sure, hate the Germans for being your adversaries, but attacking their humanity, culture and the reality is a different story. Not to mention the trope that the Germans wanted world domination is completely faulty, yes mayby at some point in the war after some success Hitler had Idea's of grandeaur, but the original plan was just regaining the land that was lost during the first world war. That is hardly a plan of world domination. I get that during wartimes countries demonised each other. WW1 Germany was demonised to get people to fight. Then the Germans and Austrians demonised the Jews (not the first to do so( think Merchant of Venice, the holy wars etc.)). Then the Germans again. In the Cold war and even before, it was all the communist countries especially Russia formerly Udssr. Then after 9.11 it was the Arabs. It seems it never stops. It's as if Human kind is desperate for one palpable evil personified force that needs to be stopped. Why take real countries and People, though? Isn't it time for a change?

It's funny, it's interesting, but the love scenes are written so badly and the music makes me want to shoot myself. It's so painfully awful.

Has anybody ever noticed how incompetent pretty much everyone in this movie is? I swear you'll have more competent leadership and employees at any safari lodge in Africa. Not that they have better morals, but if some big bad escapes they know what to do.

Wholesome, funny and enjoyable. And yes I cried at the end. Any daughter that lost her dad would.

It felt done before and not even that well done. They could have made the characters and characterdevelopment more realistic. It doesn't deserve the high ratings. It was tiresome to watch.

Was fun to watch. With a good twist at the end.

The ending was excruciatingly cheesy, but the real chemistry between Emma and Luc was worth it. Even my boyfriend had fun watching the beginning. They just messed it up with all the clichés at the end.

I really want those tires that drive through lava unscathed. Maybe that's where the millions went to. It definitely didn't go into scriptwriting or double takes. It feels as if the director was chilling with the special effects team when he should have been directing the cast. If he'd left out the "story" and just kept the gore and special effects, this movie might have gotten a good review.
