I am always careful with the term ‘action comedy’ because for each Kiss kiss bang bang either Hot fuzz There is a Arrest! Or my mother will shoot. It is a difficult genre to do well, but it seems that Tom Kingsley has deciphered it: the new main video movie he has directed, Deep lidYou are receiving favorable criticism.
Deep lid Stars Bryce Dallas Howard as Kat, who teaches improvisation comedy and is beginning to believe that he has lost his great opportunity to become a comedy star. But then he runs into an undercover policeman played by Sean Bean, and he wants him to play the role of his life along with two of his students, Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed. But this is not a role on stage or on the screen. Kat and his students will infiltrate the London gang when pretending to be dangerous criminals.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the resulting film is “relentlessly silly”, and that is a compliment.
What do critics say about the deep cover?

Deep lid It is currently 95% in Rotten Tomatoes based on 22 critics criticisms (he had debuted at the SXSW London Screen Festival earlier this month), which makes it one of the best main videos films. And the consensus is that it is not exactly high art, but it is very entertaining.
Empire magazine gave movie four five -star, comparing Sean Bean with Jackson Lamb from Slow horses; To say that it is “well constructed, committing to the bit in the department of Mordaza while offering clear configurations and payments for its central characters, a comedy that, beyond the drugs of class A and the bags for the body, it is about how improvisation gives three lonely losers a new lease in life.”
“It is one of the most surprisingly fun films of the year,” says Ebert.com, giving the movie three four -star. The cast “is fantastic from top to bottom, leaning on its characters on screen in a way that keeps this whole movie together. It turns out that you can accept many silly plots, as long as you play.”
“The cover of the Amazon high concept comedy could be light in the narrative escalation, but it has many laughs and an excellent trio of main actors,” says Screen Rant. And Ready Steady Cut said that “it is an entertainment of almost perfect corn popcorn, an action comedy with a good action and a really fun comedy that puts its cast All-Star in the work that plays exaggerated pastures of its usual screen characters.”
What do the spectators say about the deep cover?
There are not enough audience reviews to turn on the comcométer to generate a score, but the viewer’s comments serve four and five stars.
Nick M loved the jags, but he felt that the crime could be better: “If the appearance of the crime was as good as comedy, it would be one of the best of recent years,” he said, while Micki K gave him the best fulfillment: “In fact, I put my phone to see it.”
Many of the spectators echoed critics pointing to Orlando Bloom for private praise: “All characters are perfectly chosen,” says Scott F, and “Orlando Bloom is particularly fun,” in addition to pointing out that how much you enjoy the movie depends in part on what you expect from it.
“This is a fun trip!” Samantha U. “Take it for what it is: entertaining. It is not a film artistic work, but a living man, I really appreciate this movement. The performance was excellent. The writing was intelligent. The characters were adorable. It was not 4 hours like any other movie at this time.” For Samantha he took her back “to the simplest moment when the movies were simply fun.”
Deep lid It is now transmitted in the main video.
