Action comedy starring Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart. Life gets dangerous for bored accountant Calvin Joyner when he reconnects with a former school classmate who now works in international espionage.
Kevin Hart stars here as an accountant who's lured into an international spy mission by former classmate Dwayne Johnson, who's now working for the CIA. The film will be wholly familiar to fans of Hart's work, as he once again plays the fast-talking comedy whirlwind who's in over his head. However, this is as much Johnson's movie, and he manages to outshine his co-star in some of the funnier scenes. The film succeeds thanks to its manic energy and heartfelt anti-bullying message (Johnson's character was a social outcast at school), while the winning comedy partnership of "a little Hart and a big Johnson" proved so successful that they teamed up again in Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle the following year.
