Editor William Kerr shaped the rhythm. On an edit-heavy film, the editor does more to control your pulse than the director.

    ★ 4/10

    Pretty much bang on average. It's a solid 5 maybe 6 at a push ratings wise, but, and excluding the annoying over done Kevin Hart; the amount of product placements was absurd They were so in the face the only thing to do was count them, a total of 20 within the first hour and then I just gave up. It wasn't all bad but damn, -2 for the above stated issues.
