The Union (2024, D: Farino) S: Mark Wahlberg, Halle Berry
Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry star in THE UNION. Only on Netflix August 16.
Mike (Mark Wahlberg), a construction worker from Jersey, is quickly thrust into the world of super spies and secret agents when his high school sweetheart, Roxanne (Halle Berry), suddenly comes back into his life and recruits him on a high-stakes U.S. intelligence mission

Feels like it's the mirror version of Ghosted.

I wish Netflix would take a chance with something that wasn't just witty banter and stupid action. Don't get me wrong, I watch and enjoy them, but like ... something with an interesting plot once in a while.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing since it is Netflix I will probably watch but pretty generic sounding...like a Central Intelligence type movie.

I wonder if they broke up because she went out of state for college and he was only 14 years old.

Gotta give Hollywood credit for being environmentally friendly... recycling the same stuff over and over.

So is THIS the movie JK Simmons was pumping all that iron for?

Got bored and watched this.
The characters were easily 20 years older than they should be in this.

Typical Netflix fluff.

I thought it was fine - I'm assuming they'll do more. I enjoyed an age-appropriate male-female relationship too.

I liked it. Disposable fluff, sure. And super predictable. But the leads had good chemistry, and it was good for a lazy weekend.
Weird how all the supporting actors, bar Simmons, disappeared shortly after

This was pure crap
Still after all these decades don't get the appeal of Mark Wahlberg.

This was fine for a streamer. Jessica De Gouw as the side villain was pretty hot.
