In recent years, however, a more common screen fantasy might be summarized as \u201cWhoops, My Significant Other Turns Out to Be an International Spy\/Assassin.\u201d There have been numerous efforts in that vein, of variably intentional absurdity. Now there\u2019s \u201cRole Play,\u201d which by their standards doesn\u2019t seem particularly outlandish for offering \u201cThe Big Bang Theory\u2019s\u201d Kaley Cuoco as a globetrotting killer cloaked in the normie guise of suburban mom.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    This smaller-scaled, gender-flipped spin on the \u201cTrue Lies\u201d conceit, however, gets most of its charm and humor from David Oyelowo, playing the Jamie Lee Curtis role of the solidly middlebrow spouse flummoxed at finding themselves married to a lethal weapon. Revealing hitherto underexposed comic chops, he elevates a slick contrivance that dis<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>oints a bit by turning into a middling action thriller rather than heightening its antic potential.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Nonetheless, French director Thomas Vincent\u2019s multinational co-production remains a fun if derivative diversion throughout. It premieres via Prime Video on Jan. 12, the same day Oyelowo hits theaters as John the Baptist in \u201cThe Book of Clarence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Just in time for chicken dinner on the grill, Emma Brackett (Cuoco) returns to her middle-class New Jersey home, shared with adoring Dave (Oyelowo), plus their kids, Caroline (Lucia Aliu) and Wyatt (Regan Bryan-Gudgeon). Hubby is fine being spared the boring details of her alleged corporate business conference in Nebraska \u2014 which makes life easy, because that is not at all what she was away doing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    In reality, Emma (or whatever her name really is) just got back from neatly dispatching some schmoe in Buenos Aires. She\u2019s a contract killer who can\u2019t even claim the moral justification of eliminating \u201cbad guys\u201d \u2014 this latest mark was a local union leader. There is a bounty on her head, yet so far she\u2019s managed to stay under-radar when off the job, and invisible (due to disguises and other tactics) while on it. At the moment, her biggest worry is that she completely forgot her own wedding anniversary.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    To make up for that oversight, she proposes a Manhattan date night, additionally spiced by the couple role-playing as \u201ctwo strangers meeting in a bar.\u201d But while Dave gets held up in traffic, she\u2019s approached in the chosen hotel watering hole by a flirtatious windy bore (Bill Nighy). This encounter turns out less harmless and a lot less boring than it initially appears, however, ultimately leaving a corpse behind. Its discovery the next morning blows Emma\u2019s cover, leaving her scrambling to meet with unamused handler Raj (Rudi Dharmalingam) on yet another last-minute \u201cbusiness <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Dave is still in the dark about his wife\u2019s true profession. But not for long, as authorities soon haul him in for questioning \u2014 the moment when it sinks in that the little missus may truly be a \u201ccool-blooded murderer\u201d provokes a double-take from Oyelowo that is probably this film\u2019s highlight. Among those authorities are a purported Federal Special Agent (Connie Nielsen) who turns out to have a long, complicated history with our heroine. When Dave flies to Berlin in pursuit of his fugitive spouse, he inadvertently leads hostile forces straight to her, and things adopt a somewhat more sober life-or-death tenor in the last half hour.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Cuoco, a producer here, mutes her own familiar comedic strengths to play a modified \u201cLa Femme Nikita\u201d type, letting her co-star get the laughs. But she retains a slightly goofy, girl-next-door quality, so we never quite buy Emma as some sort of deadly ninja molded by diabolical minders she can\u2019t fully escape.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Luckily, \u201cRole Play\u201d is handled lightly enough by Vincent\u2019s direction and Seth Owen\u2019s script that we never feel the need to take it very seriously. Which is fortunate, because otherwise we\u2019d have to ponder why we\u2019re rooting for an amorally ruthless hitwoman anyway. (That quandary gets evaded in part by avoiding graphic violence, despite a fairly high body count.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    That said, it\u2019s a small letdown that the later progress replaces earlier tongue-in-cheek buoyancy with just-OK action suspense. The players are deft enough that a little more wit in the writing would have surely been well-served. (Nighy in particular makes much of relatively little.) And while briskly handled, none of the ideas here are fresh enough for \u201cRole Play\u201d to score points on narrative or character unpredictability.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Yet it\u2019s a good-enough time, attractively produced, able to get by on sheer amiability when Dave \u2014 in a moment of emergency marital analysis \u2014 encapsulates these 101 minutes all too succinctly with \u201cI love you and I love our family but killing is bad.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
