Synopsis

Grimsby (2016) is Louis Leterrier's crude spy comedy, and you can watch it online on iFILM. Slick MI6 hitman Sebastian (Mark Strong) blows his most important mission the moment his long-lost brother shows up. That brother is Nobby, a beer-soaked football fan and father of nine, played by Sacha Baron Cohen.

The two were split up in care twenty-eight years earlier. Now Nobby has tracked his sibling down right in the middle of an operation and wrecked it. Framed for murder, the assassin and the hooligan go on the run together, leaving the fate of the planet in the hands of this mismatched pair. Isla Fisher works the MI6 desk, Rebel Wilson plays Nobby's girlfriend, and Penélope Cruz turns up as a charity figurehead with a hidden agenda.

Leterrier shoots the action straight, like a real thriller, while Baron Cohen packs the frame with the gross-out gags that are his trademark. There is one scene involving elephants that nobody walks away from unchanged. It is short, rude, and not for the squeamish. Stream Grimsby (2016) online on iFILM.
