Sunday Safe Bet

Why it’s a Sunday Safe Bet

It's still drawing plenty of interest, though it had just 36% on Rotten Tomatoes and a box office loss. A safe bet when you want something reliable.

Our take: A glossy streaming heist built around three huge stars. Easy to have on; hard to remember afterward.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for crime fans, anyone who wants a laugh and action fans. If you loved Reservoir Dogs or Family Plot, start here. Audiences love it more than critics do: a crowd-pleaser first.
The mood: Light and funny.
The pace: Fast-moving, at 1 hr 58 min.
What might put you off: Critics were cooler on it than audiences.

An Interpol-issued Red Notice is a global alert to hunt and capture the world's most wanted. But when a daring heist brings together the FBI's top profiler and two rival criminals, there's no telling what will happen.
