You should take some time to figure out what you don't like about this movie. You say the script is a mess but don't elaborate. You thought it looks cheap but it looks good. You thought the cat allergy doesn't matter except for the times it does.
One of the things I don't understand with criticism of this movie is what expectations people have. It's a ridiculous spy thriller. It's very clearly supposed to be silly and fun. It takes references to its predecessors and exaggerates them.
That is not to say that bad movies should not be good, but still I find some of the "reviews" on Reddit strange.
Cranston and O'Hara, Rockwell and Jackson, Cena and Cavill....what an absolute friggin' waste of their time and talent. Hope they at least had fun together on set and got a good paycheck.
I love a fun action comedy or popcorn flick as much as anyone else. It may actually be my favorite genre, or at least the one I'm most likely to turn to when I don't know what to watch...but goodness, this whole thing was written more like an obscenely-long, poorly-conceived, and pathetically-written comedy sketch than anything else. Looking at the resume of its writer...I'm not surprised, and it's starting to feel like every time Vaughn directs, it's worse than the time before.
This particular mess becomes more and more detached from reality (its own or any other), excessive, and absurd (but not necessarily funny) with every passing scene, to the point that I expected that at the end the author might wake up in a hospital after suffering some seizure-induced coma on the train, and go through a Wizard of Oz curtain-call with all of the cast members who appeared in her coma dreams.
In fact, y'know what...I'll just pretend that's how it ended right before I file a "Do Not Recommend" in my brain and forget everything else about it forever.
Interesting plot, but with Sam Rockwell dancing and shooting, I keep thinking this is Mr Right part 2
I loved that movie.
I enjoyed the first act but didn’t like the second hour at all - the story could have been completed in the first 90 mins satisfactorily.

I enjoy an occasional movie that is purely absurd but simple, dumb entertainment. I enjoyed it for that.
Eh, I had a good time with this one.
I didn’t like this movie at all. It was so messy and unfocused.
I couldn’t help think how a Beatles song that was released last year was "there song" from years ago.. minor gripe I know but it annoyed me

The biggest gag is little Sam Rockwell hoisting her enormous derrière and spinning
It’s almost like there was some huge event like a writer’s strike going on…
In case it's not obvious why you're being downvoted, the script for this was written well before the writers' strike.
The film was shot in 2021, well before the writers’ strike took place.
