Mark Wahlberg, Halle Berry Lead a Middling Spy Comedy in 'The Union'
Briefly

"The Union never quite hits its stride tonally. It's not silly enough to be a comedy, but I think that's what it would prefer to be."
"Mike is a broke construction worker still living in his hometown of Patterson, New Jersey, with his mother, hanging with his old friends in bars."
"The idea came from Stephen Levinson, Wahlberg's longtime business partner, who together helped bring another middle of the road Netflix action-comedy to life in Spenser Confidential."
"The notion that anyone could be an international spy given the opportunity and a few weeks of training is a charming fantasy, but The Union struggles to deliver on that premise."
