The Brothers Grimsby

Wrongfully accused and on the run, a top MI6 assassin joins forces with his long-lost, football hooligan brother to save the world from a sinister plot.

Critics were largely cold on The Brothers Grimsby, finding Sacha Baron Cohen's shock-comedy formula more exhausted than inspired. The film lands enough outrageous moments to keep some viewers entertained, but professional critics and general audiences diverged sharply — critics dismissed much of it as strained provocation, while audiences rewarded it more warmly.
