It is multiple stunts - ha got you there, right? So no pun intended as always? Now if you think my jokes are weird, prepare yourself for weirder ... action in this one. I remember that I watched the tv show this is based on. But it's been a while - so I do not remember how this fares comedy and humor wise.
That said, Ryan and Emily have bombastic chemistry (sorry?) - the dialog is tight, the action/stunts are amazing .... and the story really works. Add to that a soundtrack that you should absolutely love (even more so if you like 80s music), references to the 80s and another show (including a musical cue ... added to the visuals that is) ... and a lot of fourth wall breaking ... you may even argue: the fourth wall is being evaporated! I reckon that about sums it up.
This is a love song - not just to love (again no pun intended), but to stunt men ... and women of course. A travesty that they have yet to get a section at the Academy Awards. I still can see the unicorn ... it was that good (you'll get it once you watch - also I am of course kidding - no I did not do that - again you'll get it after you've seen the movie).
Important note at the end ... when the credits start rolling, there are some behind the scenes footage you will see. I thought it would go the Jackie Chan route, but it is just showing what happened behind the cameras - and how they did the stunts and the action. Which come to think about it, was the better choice. But that is not all - so if you may not be too interested in that ... there is a bonus scene coming after that ... and it is quite the nice one! The movie itself has some ... interesting actors, I am sure you will find someone to your liking! And almost everyone is fighting ... (maybe not Kung Fu but still ... passionate and well enough) ... I was going to give it a 9, but then I was like ... come on, why not go the full point route?
