Mini-Review: It has an energy to it. The chemistry and charisma of the actors carries the film, along with the clever dialogue. The villains aren't formidable; and seeing a city get destroyed in a colossal clash of carnage has become too familiar. But it overcomes these faults and works as pure popcorn entertainment. Just don't expect to see anything new.

Mini-Review: A brilliantly funny film carried by terrific performances from Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum. It has the right mix of energy, heart and raunch.
