What critics said
Critics broadly found the film to be a formulaic and underwritten action-heist comedy whose star charisma and spectacle could not overcome its primitive plot and uneven humor.
What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
John Hartley, Nolan Booth, and the Bishop pursue priceless jeweled eggs linked to Cleopatra while repeatedly manipulating one another.

The trio’s pursuit crosses dance floors, a secluded prison, jungles, and other international locations while they seek the three eggs.
The film stages parkour-heavy chases, jungle action, prison escapes, and lavish heist environments across a worldwide itinerary.
