A vulgar, high-energy buddy-cop action-comedy built on the contrast between a suave spy and his crude, working-class brother, prioritizing laughs and sibling bonding over plot coherence.

Wrongfully accused and on the run, a top MI6 assassin joins forces with his long-lost, football hooligan brother to save the world from a sinister plot.
