In this film, after a rough break-up, Jen (Heigl) goes to France on vacation with her parents (Tom Selleck and Catherine O'Hara).At the hotel, she meets Spencer (Kutcher), a handsome, charming and single man just hanging around in France. The two hit it off and we jump forward three years they're married, living in a wonderful home in the suburbs, and their life couldn't be any more perfect.
What Jen doesn't know is that Spencer gave up a pretty heady job for their marriage he was a hired assassin for the CIA. And now, three years later, there's a hit for $20 million out on his head, and hijinks ensue in their little suburb as all of Spencer's secrets start unraveling.
Most of the charm of the film, though, comes from its supporting actors. Selleck and O'Hara are both great as Heigl's parents, O'Hara especially. Rob Riggle, Alex Borstein and Katheryn Winnick portray a few of the various killers out to get Kutcher, and Riggle especially is just hysterical. I think this is a classic case of an audience-pleaser and critic-baffler. At the very least, I found a happy middle between them, and this is surely a film those looking for a quick laugh may enjoy with the right mindset.
