Hunting the world's most notorious art thief, Booth, FBI profiler Hartley realizes he must team up with the criminal to catch an even more elusive crook who seems to always be one step ahead.
Dwayne Johnson (Hartley), Ryan Reynolds (Booth), Gal Gadot (Bishop), Ritu Arya (Inspector Das), Chris Diamantopoulous (Voce), Ivan Mbakop (Tambwe), Vincenzo Amato (Gallo), Rafael Petardi (Ricci).
Red Notice is the silly fun that happens when you put three big name actors together who all enjoy a few good laughs. Hartley is on the hunt for notorious art thief Booth when they are both double-crossed by Bishop. Teaming up, the two set out to take Bishop down giving Booth the art he desires and Hartley the arrest he is seeking. The result is an action adventure with more than a few laughs and a storyline that moves long well up through the Happy Ever After ending.
Acting was enjoyable with Johnson, Reynolds, and Gadot all delivering very well and appearing to work well together. Arya and Diamantopoulous both did nicely and brought a bit more depth, while the remainder of the supporting cast was solid and enjoyable.
Camera work, sets, and backgrounds are nicely done with just enough detail given the genre. Action scenes and visual effects are nicely done and integrated together well. Dialogue is a lot of fun with some good laughs and nice subtle humor. Sound and soundtrack were good.
Overall Red Notice is quite simply; fun. The film remains light and casual with good laughs while moving the storyline along at a nice pace. Those who enjoy fun action comedy should enjoy this one.
With some mild sexuality, some violence, foul language, and a few crude references, this should be fine for teens and above.
