This film opens with a sequence in a museum where you see Booth trying to pull a fast one on Hartley and Das. It’s an engaging flippant opener but thereafter the film goes downhill. We are informed about Cleopatra’s three coveted Golden eggs of which only two have been discovered. One was in the museum before Booth got hold of it, the other is in the hidden closely guarded collection of a middle-eastern arms dealer and the third is yet to be found…but Booth has an idea where it could possibly be. Huh?

The action is unimaginative and the comedy fails to mine the laughs. The writing fails in the due diligence test, the CGI looks third rate, continuity is terrible, and the director probably never had an original idea to lend to the making of it. Dwayne Johnson looks lost, Ryan Reynolds’ so-called witty shtick seems passé and Gal Gadot seems to have been pushed back to earth in a hurry. Avoidable Really!
