"The Wrecking Crew" is aptly named.
This action flick, for me, early on wrecked any chance that I'd actually enjoy this film. I'll put my hand up and say I'm sick and tired of the gratuitous violence oozing out of Hollywood. The light, jokey tone of this film is at odds with oftentimes really ugly violence. Entirely smashing someone's upper teeth against a table in the opening scenes is one such example. It's not funny; it's not okay, its not entertaining, no matter who it's done to.
Regrettably, given how violent US society is, perhaps I should not be surprised, but it's also one of the reasons I don't watch a great deal of US cinema these days.
Beyond that, the actions of the formulaic variety and the bro buddy back story has long since ossified into a cliche.
In summary, tone it down, Hollywood. Excessive violence is not okay. If you want to make a light-toned action flick, then try doing just that.
