This comedy thriller takes the sparky chemistry between Brad Pitt and George Clooney – a force that could power the national grid as well as several instalments of the Oceans series – and turns it on its head. Clooney and Pitt play unnamed competitors, both covert fixers of other people’s messy situations. When, due to a communication breakdown, they find themselves hired for the same job (a hotel room, a body, a compromised politician), the (un)professional rivalry between them boils over into petty niggling and bickering. The joke is that, for all their personal differences, they are basically the same man. But it’s a joke that soon wears thin, and a film that erases itself so thoroughly from your memory, it’s almost as if Pitt and Clooney had performed one of their bespoke clean-up services on your brain.
