Role Play tells the story of a married couple who decide to have a night out that reveals to a secret revealed that will shake them to their core.

Overall this movie isn't strong in any aspect. I feel like the casting of David Oyelowo as the husband was not a good choice. He has almost no chemistry with Kaley Cuoco and I don't buy that these two are married. These two are the heart of the film and I just think it's hard to get invested in them.

Characters in general are very inconsistent, weakly written so that they can do what the script needs them to do. Timid/rational in one scene, brave/irrational the next. The "ruthless criminals" feel like were lifted from a rated PG TV movie.

I do think some of the film is fun and the set up is intriguing, if ultimately bland. I love Bill Nighy so he was a welcome surprise and makes the best scene in the movie. I was fairly engaged throughout the movie and it went by fairly quickly.

Overall this is a straight to streaming quality movie that doesn't do its premise as well as others like Mr. And Mrs. Smith. It is a skip.

Role Play is a pretty bad comedy action film about a wife who is an assassin and hiding the secret from her husband and family. Until her past catches up to her and she has to step in and fight for her familys safety.

The plot is forgettable with its tedious script. The plot is similiar to The Family Plan except at least the humor and fun in that film is worth watching. This film lacks the humor and when it tries for laughs it is just pure awkward. The action sequences are boring. The cast ensemble is forgettable. It is nice to see Katey going for the action role. But the script and direction gives them nothing to work with.

It is a boring action film that has a eh story. Boring action and tedious performances.

Emma and David have been married for seven years and, after returning from yet another 'boring business trip' she forgets their anniversary. Thinking it is time to spice things up a little they decide to have a little role play. They separately head to an upmarket New York hotel where they plan to enter under assumed names and pretend they are strangers meeting for the first time. Unfortunately David is delayed and Emma finds herself being chatted up by an older man. Nothing is quite what it seems; he has recognised her and her secret life, that of an international assassin, is about to be exposed! She must go on the run as David tries to come to terms with what he is told. They will be reunited but the danger, for them and their two children, is far from over as Emma's employers are determined she won't walk away from her work.

I thought this was fairly fun even if it isn't as action packed or violent as one might expect for the genre. The plot isn't the most original but it serves well enough with some mildly tense moments as well as a degree of humour. Kaley Cuoco does a solid job as Emma, I think she has what it takes to make the action believable. David Oyelowo is fun as David, especially as he gradually learns just what his wife can do. Given that it isn't particularly violent, there isn't an excessive amount of strong language and here is no sex or nudity it can be enjoyed as a family film with older children; I'd say anybody old enough to watch the likes of 'James Bond' is old enough for this. Overall I wouldn't say this is a must watch but I did enjoy it so would recommend giving it a go.
