Over the years, I’ve realized I enjoy movies and series most when I don’t know anything about them. Sure, I hear about the latest movies/shows and read about the cast and the media talking about them, but I avoid delving too deep. Surprise definitely enhances the enjoyment, and the lower the expectations, the less the disappointment.

A few weeks ago, I caught a teaser for “Argylle.” It didn’t reveal much about the plot; rather, it showcased the cast. And it worked; it grabbed my attention. However, I also gathered that this might not be high-quality storytelling but rather easily digestible entertainment for a Sunday night.

Thus, I decided to watch it one Sunday evening, and I wasn’t disappointed. It’s difficult to write a review without spoilers, but I believe I can say that the movie doesn’t introduce anything groundbreaking to our cinematic universe. Yet, it’s an entertaining spy action comedy. That’s what I was in the mood for that Sunday night, and that’s what I got.

Don’t expect too much logic from this flick, as that will detract from the fun. Simply enjoy the vibrant and colorful visuals. I don’t understand why movies nowadays have to exceed a runtime of 2 hours, especially for such straightforward movies, but I believe a duration of about 100 minutes would suffice for a movie like this.

Anyway, I enjoyed the almost 2 and a half hours.
