Considering there were one or two scenes where I laughed, I'll give it some points. But this is the kind of comedy I don't like. Given that there aren't any proper jokes here, half of the film is just pointless chaos, with someone arguing, someone yelling at someone else, or just plain yelling. This just isn't funny to me.

Childish but at least well-paced. The different characters of “silly but cute” Reese Witherspoon and “foxy” Sofía Vergara complement each other in the right comedic way. The movie’s target audience will be satisfied.

Honestly - this was really dumb. But for some reason I actually enjoyed it. After seeing Reese Witherspoon’s performance, I’m secretly hoping that someone will cast her in the role of Adolf Hitler, I'm sure she would do an excellent job :-) Sofía Vergara was a very distracting character whenever the camera was on her, I could not concentrate on the subtitles and every time she spoke, she instantly made me laugh. The plot was simple, some of the jokes were probably intended for people with a lower IQ, but it was still great fun.

Reese Witherspoon is a pretty insufferable character, but is still a cute and likeable girl, and Sofia Vergara is simply a gorgeous piece of woman that every guy would want to see on a daily basis, and her "in high heels with a low cleavage" role was written exactly for her body. However, as beautiful as they are to watch, the story sounds more like a casual fooling around by two shouting friends who wanted to contribute to the lighter waters of cinematic feminism and remind us that even absurd female team-ups have their days in action comedies. Nothing against it, but it wasn't fun even to the extent that it could be called a fine diversion, let alone a fun sexy diversion. For movies with similar themes, I’ll always prefer the masculine Midnight Run, beautiful girls are not everything. 40%

I got exactly what I’d wanted. An awesome Reese Witherspoon and a tough Sofía Vergara, who kept dropping funny lines, which were sometimes better, sometime worse. But the movie definitely helped me relax.
