Central Intelligence
SCORE: 48
Central Intelligence is another movie we found on Black Friday on
sale. One of our kids had seen a preview and wanted to see it. The rest
of us were luke warm on the movie. I am shocked Central Intelligence is
not rated 'R' for Restricted. With so much bad language, nudity, racism,
blood, and violence I am unclear what the MPAA is thinking with the
PG-13 rating.
Calvin Joyner (nicknamed Golden Jet) was the big man in high school. Bob
Stone changed his name because he was teased and bullied mercilessly.
Calvin (played by Kevin Hart) becomes an accountant and Bob (Dwayne
Johnson) is a buffed out CIA agent. They connect through Facebook and
Calvin's calm and boring life enters the world of espionage. Who is
telling the truth? Who can Calvin trust?
There are plenty of funny moments in Central Intelligence. Dwayne
Johnson is starting to look old, but he plays the mentally unhinged
agent quite well. In fact I was guessing until the end if Bob was the
good guy or the bad guy. Central Intelligence does a good job with that
throughout the movie. Some of Bob's comments are absolutely hilarious in
Central Intelligence.
I am dismayed that Holly Weird took Central Intelligence in such an
offensive manner in terms of attacking Biblical marriage, good morals,
and ethics. The story in Central Intelligence has so many holes in it
that if it were a boat it would be sitting next to the Titanic on the
bottom of the ocean. If it could make it that far out to sea. The
excessive amounts of bad language in Central Intelligence is very
troubling. Central Intelligence mocks Christians in a near hate speech
kind of way.
I like how Calvin helped the awkward guy in high school. That act of
kindness went a long way in Bob's life. Bob is always very upbeat and
positive about the Golden Jet too. Even when Calvin does not believe in
himself. Bob does use Calvin in Central Intelligence for his accounting
skills. There is also way too much sexual innuendo in Central
Intelligence. This is a movie that will be watched once and stored away.
