Role Play - 3/10 - Kaley Cuoco stars as a suburban mum who is also an international assassin, and if that sounded dumb to read then trust me the film is even worse. This is the sort of guff which used to be "direct to VHS/DVD" back in the day but now its Amazon (in this case) or Netflix or some other streaming platform which is busy converting cash to nothing on films like this.
Cuoco can't shake that "TV actress" type of casting here and she is never once believable in her assassin role, although her stunt team needs a huge pay rise for doing so much for her. The rest of the main cast are "movie" actors (and somehow it shows vs a TV actor) but outside of a fantastic cameo near the start, most have almost nothing really decent to do and feel very 1 dimensional.
The humour is very poor, the CGI is very poor, you can see there's a very obvious lack of budget to actually do much after the location shoots they chose looked to take most of it, but some of the cinematography is OK, especially towards the ending. However in the end its just a very poor film made without any obvious desire to shine and I think its fully deserving the 17% critics rating on RT.
