Very funny, very violent, crammed with maximum action scenes but frankly.......overly long for my taste. Cinema contained mostly women who howled with laughter throughout. And I mean howled.....though some might have pissed themselves laughing.

Wouldn't buy the eventual DVD but I would watch it again on Sky Movies.

Edit: Got to hand it to Melissa McCarthy, she works her butt off for this movie.

    I thought Rose Byrne stole the show. She's great in comedies, even dire Seth Rogen ones.

    Loved it.

    McCarthy was great as usual, as was Byrne.

    But the most surprising was Statham...

    Can't abide McCarthy. At all. I'd love to watch it, but I really cannot fathom watching her in another film. She is NOT funny. The same character/shtick in every performance. God help the new Ghostbusters film, which I won't be able to watch either due to her presence.

    Her character was different to what she has played before and she was actually really good.

    He spat dialogue out at machine gun speed :)
