![]() Galifianakis steals the show as the friendly fussbudget in a performance we've come to expect from him. Hamm's character is unfortunately underwritten, caught in the no-man's land between Don Draper and a goofier comedic character. The story takes too long to get going, and once the film finally starts to fire on all cylinders, it's over. The in-between moments are the funniest bits, rapid-fire riffs or bits of physical comedy, but there's no time to enjoy them. The editing is awkward, the pacing off - jokes don't land, action scenes are illegible. ![]() It's just that everything around them doesn't work. The rule here seems to be, If it ain't broke, don't fix it. The draw here is the chemistry of the performers, their personas bouncing around like atoms against each other creating energy - Hamm suave and sophisticated, Gadot exotic and strong, Fischer cute and neurotic, while Galifianakis does his dorky, lovable-coward routine.
