User Reviews:
Very entertaining
I went into the movie for my birthday, being a
young woman my twin and I were initially attracted by the 2 leading male actors
who were captivating & handsome- but is that enough to make a movie
watchable to a certain degree? No. But this movie beat my expectations. I had
already read some online reviews by critics but to be honest I don't know what
movie they had went to see since the reviews were overwhelmingly negative but
it couldn't have been 'The Man from U.N.C.L.E.'. It was a witty, and smart
movie where each actor didn't outshine one another. I personally do not trust
critics since they tend to like boring movies like 'The Lincoln Lawyer' that
put me to sleep. It's almost as if the movie was too witty for them & the
quips and snarky comments went over their daft heads and left a sour taste in
their mouths.
I recommend this movie to anyone if you liked the
Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock movies then you will thoroughly enjoy this. My only
wish is that it was a little longer but that doesn't detract from the quality
of the movie.
