So I watched this again a couple of days ago and I honestly think this is one of the all-time great comedy ensembles. Am I crazy, or is anyone with me?

I'm with you, it's all around great cast but I'll give the edge to Rose.

Statham by far. I actually would say Miranda Hart and Peter Serafinowicz are miles better than Byrne, who was fine but nothing terribly special.

"You really think you're ready for the field? I once used defibrillators on myself. I put shards of glass in my fuckin' eye. I've jumped from a high-rise building using only a raincoat as a parachute and broke both legs upon landing; I still had to pretend I was in a fucking Cirque du Soleil show! I've swallowed enough microchips and shit them back out again to make a computer. This arm has been ripped off completely and re-attached with *this* fuckin' arm." "I watched the woman I love get tossed from a plane and hit by another plane mid-air. I drove a car off a freeway on top of a train while it was on fire. Not the car, *I* was on fire." "Nothing kills me. I'm immune to 179 different types of poison. I know because I ingested them all at once when I was deep undercover in an underground poison-ingesting crime ring." He easily has the best quotes and delivers them so fucking good.

I actually really, really enjoy that movie - probably one of my favourite comedies of the '10s in fact. As for cast standout, they're all absolutely fantastic, but Rose stole the show. I actually think I might have laughed out loud at pretty much every single line delivery from her. That plane scene alone.

Everyone was pretty great, but Statham steals the show easily. That hotel scene had me in splits.

One of my all time favs and Statham! He should do more comedies.

Statham, he was clearly a blast in the role.

Jude Law, tbh.

McCarthy, because she carried the bulk of the film's comedy on her shoulders and had the funniest lines. Statham, Byrne, and Law were all playing second fiddle, and Byrne wasn't even that funny.
