What the critics say
Based on 20 reviews, Central Intelligence gets an average review score of 57
But the film also takes them seriously as characters with dashed hopes and unrealized aspirations, men who feel things deeply even though they might not show it. They bicker, they yell at each other, and they get drawn into circuitous conversations about subjects that have little to do with the mission.

Central Intelligence, however, despite featuring explosions, car chases, shoot-outs, and muscle shirts, explores a softer, vulnerable side of the 44-year old.
3111d ago
The most surprising thing about the new buddy action-comedy Central Intelligence is the sight of Kevin Hart playing straight man to another actor’s antics.
3111d ago
While it fails to deliver convincing action and its comedy feels watered down, Central Intelligence does get the “buddy” aspect correct. Doing their best with a script (also by Ike Barinholtz and David Stasser) that feels all-too-safe, Johnson and Hart manage to prove that a movie can glide by just enough on sheer charisma alone.

Central Intelligence won’t win any points for originality, but that doesn’t make it any less funny.

Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart are a dream team in ‘Central Intelligence’
3111d ago
'Central Intelligence': Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson rock the buddy flick.
3111d ago
It’s telling that “Central Intelligence” is at its most entertaining at the beginning and end of the picture, when the story hasn’t yet unfolded, or has pretty much wrapped up.
3111d ago
Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart headline Rawson Marshall Thurber's odd-couple comedy about two high-school acquaintances who end up on the run from the CIA.
3111d ago
The Rock shows his vulnerable side in the stupidly funny Central Intelligence.
3111d ago
The action-comedy Central Intelligence is a dud with a few good laughs.
3111d ago
The plot is moronic and the final act drags, but this buddy romp is elevated by the glorious inanity of Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart’s central double act.
3111d ago
This barely-there action-comedy relies heavily on the charm of its leading men, and even they make something less than a classic comic duo.
3111d ago
It's a pity that no one else involved in the making of the film had Dwayne Johnson's sly intuition.
3111d ago
Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart team up for a spy-game action comedy that could have used less fake intrigue and more laughs.
3111d ago
Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart star in an action movie/buddy comedy that's nowhere near as funny as they are.
3111d ago
The blend of Johnson’s laid-back hero-dudeness and Hart’s whippet-fast comic timing should have been good fun. But somebody, alas, had an idea, though not a good one: Make Johnson the comedian and Hart the straight man.

Fortyish accountant Calvin Joyner (Kevin Hart) was once the coolest guy in school, but now he’s depressed with his middle management lot. That changes when the former geeky kid at school, now a CIA assassin (Dwayne Johnson), enlists his help.
3111d ago
An odd-couple caper of staggering dopeyness that makes you long for the snap and sizzle of the buddy movies of the 1980s.
3111d ago
Perhaps Hart and Johnson will find their respective break-out hits (Johnson is rumored to have signed on to over a dozen films in the next five years – in other words, the shotgun method), but Central Intelligence is a throwaway film that in all the worst ways give summer movies a bad name: told by idiots, full of sound and fury, and signifying nothing but first-weekend grosses.
