I knew that the film would not be great, but at least I was expecting something funny to happen and an ok plot. I thought that the premise of adults playing tag was ok if good executed, but it wasn't. There weren't a lot of jokes and the movie was relying on the high energy. The plot of the movie is also very thin, because the entire movie was talking and case scenes. For the most part I was bored and at the end I almost fell asleep . The pacing was bad and several times I I thought the movie was ending. There was a lot of filler and without it the movie would be an hour. There was a big problem with the tone. During the cases some of the injuries were treated seriously and other times the action was cartoonish and people were punched with fire extinguishers and battering rams without any injuries. The acting wasn't good as well. Ed Helms did a good job of playing Ed Helms and the Wall street journalist Annabelle Wallis just stood around doing nothing. The characters weren't written very interesting. They were ether psychopaths or they had no development, except for the pot guy. The directing wasn't good. There was no style to it. Nothing interesting or new. It was like all other bad comedies. The budget of the movie is 28 million dollars which is very high and I am not sure were the money went. If you want to see it do not pay.
