It’s very good as a believable source of PTSD, though. (e.g. Peaky Blinders)

And yet features the Boer Wars, when the British government tried their hand at concentration camps.
I mean, the whole concept of an “independent” murder intelligence organization, operating outside of government oversight has more than a whiff of fascist fantasy to it.
Coincidentally, ‘clumsy regressive imperial nostalgic garbage trying to skate by with a thin layer of jokey irony’ would also be my review for the current UK government.
The first two movies were terrible...and I loved them both. Sounds like this one lost sight of what made the first two stupid fun.
...it’s trying to have it both ways—to be stupid and clever at the same time, and coming across mostly as the former.
The film’s one good history joke—the casting of Tom Hollander in the triple role of King George V, Tsar Nicholas II, and Kaiser Wilhelm II—turns out to be a squandered stunt;
Smartly-dressed, bowler-hat-wearing Ralph Feinnes goes up against a maniacal Scot in a feature-length wink at the audience, rife with gleeful era-mashing, that turns out not to be very good? I’ll stick with “The Avengers”, thanks. At least that had Eddie Izzard.

Hey, if you really want to make Peloton shit themselves (ha, just kidding, those folks don’t eat solid food, just green smoothies!), give Monica Ruiz a major role on Sex and the City.
Didn’t that show air less than a week ago? So a publicly traded company threw an ad concept together over the weekend, had legal approve it, got a relatively big star to be in it, edited, and released it that quickly?
So he faked his own death to get out of a train wreck of a marriage to an insufferable narcissist
So we should run if we go to someone’s house and they have a Peloton AND a Crock Pot?
The stock market is just gambling at this point, and it is ridiculous it is considered a financial indicator of anything serious anymore.
