The Union" defies logic to such an extent that no amount of suspension of disbelief could ever justify it. Go to Full Review Ben Kenigsberg New York Times 08/19/2024
The “Mission: Impossible” series went missing in action this summer, but that’s no reason to settle for Netflix’s “The Union,” a depressing illustration of the wisdom that sometimes you shouldn’t buy — or stream — generic. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews Aug 4

Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry can't save this horrendous action comedy. Go to Full Review Barry Levitt The Daily Beast Jun 5
If the co-stars had fun filming, you’d barely know it based on the end result. It’s a lifeless, visually uninteresting, convoluted experience that combines the thrills of waiting in a dentist's office with the mystery of waiting at the DMV. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jeff B. @jab123ca 4d Couldn't get past 45 minutes, bad uneventful & to stupid to keep watching See more Duncan B 6d Utter dross. Amazed that someone thought this was worth funding. See more Dave L Feb 5 I enjoyed this film. Good action and superb cast. See more Michelle N @MichelleN Jan 23 This is a no brainer action movie that is really easy to watch. Enough fight scenes to keep you entertained. See more Pedro Henrique C @Pedro2005 Jan 3 The Union (2024) It's not perfect, it's not good, it's not innovative at all, and it's a terrible action movie, but... I found it fun to watch this cheesy thing that Netflix released. See more Kim P Dec 20 Any movie where Simmons, Haley and Colter are "just okay" is bound to disappoint. And it surely does. This film is further proof that Halle Berry and Mark Wahlberg are incapable of delivering a good performance without a great script and talented director. This had neither. And the lead actors are not able (or willing?) to transcend the material. The only thing less than disappointing was the stunt work. AVOID See more Read all reviews
