  • Mark Wahlberg is back in Boston with his new Netflix movie, Spencer Confidential.

  • So that's what we're going to be the next big hit for Netflix.

  • Or is this a movie that should have just stayed confidential?

  • Let's find out.

  • So Mark Wahlberg takes the lead here as Spencer, an ex cop better known for making trope with and solving it.

  • He just got out of prison and wants to leave Boston for good.

  • But he gets roped into helping his old mentor deal with a boxing amateur named Hawk who's a no nonsense M M, a fighter that's convinced he could beat the shit out of Mike Tyson.

  • But when two of Spencer's former colleagues turned up murdered, he recruits Hawk and his slutty ex girlfriend toe, help him investigate and bring the culprits to justice.

  • I don't know.

  • You don't get the cold gun.

  • Hawk is the name of a man with a shotgun.

  • Spencer does your taxes.

  • That was good.

  • We'll let you have your little gun before we go any further.

  • In this review, I just want to take a moment and thank you guys from the bottom of my heart for giving me all this love and support on my channel for the past few months.

  • Comments like these really tell me how much you guys love me and not just the comment section is just filled with so much positivity.

  • And if there's one thing the YouTube comment section is known for, its the positivity.

  • So thank you.

  • But yeah, back to Spencer Confidential.

  • It's movie not good.

  • I'm gonna be honest.

  • It was a bit of a mess, and it had about almost everybody copy shape in the book.

  • Which is kind of a bummer to tell you the truth, because it's directed by Peter Berg, and he's made some pretty good movies with Mark Wahlberg.

  • They made long survivor Patriots Day deepwater.

  • Her rise in Those are very solid movies with good performances from Mark Wahlberg, who's very, very hit or miss I hear you whispering, planning on stealing something.

  • No, ma'am, we're not.

  • Plan on murdering me in my sleep.

  • What?

  • No, Mark Wahlberg is your generic good guy here, and it's right up his alley.

  • And to say he sleepwalks through that alley this time is an understatement.

  • I mean, he's such a generic good guy that even the bad guys in the movie column, a choirboy.

  • Even his girlfriend in the movie mentions how he has this, like strong moral code, which is just the movies.

  • Excuse toe move the plot forward cause he's stupid as how, when they're becoming a good guy in a movie, mean that you were dumb because in every Mark Wahlberg comedy movie, The good Guys are stupid as hell and it's no different here.

  • I will say, though, if you're looking for a comedy just to get Stone to you could do worse in this movie.

  • This movie has a lot of action scenes.

  • I swear there was about a fight scene like every 10 to 15 minutes, and most of them came out of nowhere.

  • You get to see a guy fighting a dog, which was as random as that sounds, and for a movie that's deemed a comedy.

  • I didn't even laugh once, unless you consider the line.

  • Did you just kick me?

  • Broke to be freaking hilarious, cause if that's the case, you might be the one person this movie was made for.

  • Grown men running around playing Batman and Alfred over here.

  • Winston Duke is the co star here as the M M A Fighter hawk.

  • I'm a big fan of Winston Duke.

  • He was great in Black Panther.

  • He was good in us.

  • Ah, he wasn't bad, per se here.

  • It's just that the screen writers gave him absolutely nothing to work with.

  • There was absolutely no chemistry between Mark Wahlberg and Winston Duke, and everyone involved felt like they were mailing it in.

  • But on the bright side, at least we got to see Post Malone's his acting chops, which was surprising.

  • It pretty good, especially coming from a guy whose face looks like 1/7 grader's notebook.

  • What do you say?

  • Spends much?

  • How's it feel getting out?

  • We have a little going away message for you.

  • For me.

  • Give him hell, Spencer.

  • But if Post Malone is the best thing I have to say about this movie that tells you all you need to know, this movie just wasn't funny.

  • It wasn't interesting.

  • It didn't know whether to take itself seriously or just go all out crazy.

  • In the end, Peter Burke settles for something in between, which is fitting because this movie was just a blade in Netflix, CASS crap for everyone involved.

  • I'm gonna give this movie a D.

  • And unless you're high as a kite, I recommend you skip this one.

  • But all right, guys, thanks so much for watching my review off Spencer Confidential.
