The film, directed by Jon Watts, features George Clooney and Brad Pitt as fixers who are called to a Manhattan penthouse hotel suite to handle a scandal involving a semi-naked young man, played by Austin Abrams. The plot unfolds as Clooney's character, summoned by district attorney Margaret (Amy Ryan), discovers the unconscious body surrounded by broken glass. Pitt's character arrives shortly after, sent by the hotel owner to prevent a scandal. Their interactions lead to a comedic rivalry as they attempt to manage the situation, which is complicated by the fact that the young man is alive and possesses a backpack filled with drugs stolen from Albanian mobsters. The film showcases the chemistry between Clooney and Pitt, who engage in witty banter and compete to outdo each other. Their characters, both requiring glasses and dealing with aging issues, add a humorous layer to the narrative. The story takes the duo on a nighttime adventure across New York City, featuring various locations, including Chinatown and Brighton Beach, and even a Croatian wedding. Despite the film's repetitive jokes and formulaic action, the star power of Clooney and Pitt keeps the audience engaged. The cinematography by Larkin Seiple enhances the visual experience, making the film a treat for viewers. The film is set to premiere on AppleTV+ a week after its theatrical release on September 27. A sequel has already been hinted at, suggesting that audiences may see more of Clooney and Pitt's characters in future escapades, potentially solving crimes in an assisted living facility, which adds to the comedic potential of their aging characters.
