Lean, tidy and efficient comedic spy thriller.

Do Kurylenko, Johnson and costars make High Heat worth seeking out? Not really, but they certainly make it a lot less painful.

The new High Heat isn’t amongst the true, bottom-of-the-barrel efforts — the cast is mostly solid, it’s got some genuine production value, and there’s credible fight choreography — but its deficiencies ultimately outweigh its virtues.

The cast is full of familiar faces, but even they can’t save High Heat. Though well-constructed, there isn’t anything special about the film.

2/5

Some scenes, played for comedy, go on too long, and the jokey scenarios and dialogue become annoying. This, on top of the film's by-the-numbers aspects, mean that High Heat can be surprisingly boring despite its high number of fighting/action scenes.

Cheap filming. Poor continuity. Even worse acting. Let’s film it at night to keep the costs down.

Just a fun movie to watch. Great directing and nicely brought to production. Very good cinematography and choreography. Whole cast in character, especially Kurylenko. Nice storyline and enough action. No big surprises or twists, but entertaining nonetheless.

Murder is not something to put in a comedy. Not funny at all and sometimes makes your eyes rolls up to the sky.

A bad, bad, bad film. I hadn't watched a movie in well over a month and 'High Heat' turned out to be the one that I chose to try and get 'back in the groove' with... quite the poor decision in hindsight! Everything about this is just simply awful, the only part saves it from an even lower rating is the run time - 20 minutes longer and it'd be 1/10 from me, easy. Olga Kurylenko is the sole 'OK' part of this 2022 flick, she doesn't do anything wrong and performs alright given what she has to work with. Similar goes with Don Johnson. The rest are below average, at best. Worse, somehow, though is the Mimi/Tom/Becky/Kaitlyn family thing, genuinely some of the most annoying and uninteresting characters I've ever seen - severe eye rolls every single time they appeared onscreen, including for one painfully overlong car scene. It would be harsh to only call out the actors though, given they are only doing what they are requested to do of course. Zach Golden & Co. did just a weak a job as the acting talent. The dialogue is woeful, as is the humour, the editing, the pacing and probably anything else you could think of. A real disappointing attempt all round, unfortunately.
