Grimsby is a 2016 action-comedy movie that follows the life of Nobby Butcher, a happy-go-lucky football hooligan residing in Grimsby with his girlfriend and nine children. Nobby's life takes a dramatic turn when he reunites with his long-lost younger brother Sebastian, whom he thinks is a spy, but is indeed an MI6 agent. Nobby, played by Sacha Baron Cohen, and his brother Sebastian, played by Mark Strong, are polar opposites. Sebastian is well-groomed, sophisticated, and highly-trained in martial arts, while Nobby is a slob who takes pride in getting drunk and causing trouble with his fellow hooligans. When Sebastian learns of a terrorist plot that could potentially destroy the world, he must team up with Nobby to stop it.

The duo's journey takes them all around the world, from London to South Africa, and even to Chili. They come across specific absurd situations filled with rude humour, violence, and some graphic nudity, causing them to face hurdles at every turn. The brothers face various hilarious mishaps from being bitten on the private part by a poisonous creature to a herd of elephants – with no escape route possible.

While the brothers are fighting against time and the bad guys, Nobby is hoping to reconnect with his lost family, especially his long-lost love Jodie, played by Rebel Wilson. Her character is notably hilarious and self-deprecating, adding to the comedy of the movie.

The movie's standout feature is without a doubt its graphic violence and crude humour, something which Baron Cohen is famous for in his movies. The action sequences are well choreographed, and the use of slow motion enhances the comedic effect. The movie also borrows elements from some James Bond movies, such as the high-speed car chases and exotic locations, but is never dull enough to feel like a copycat.

The music and cinematography in Grimsby are also done beautifully in creating an intense atmosphere that fits well with the tone of the movie. The Ultra HD visuals are stunning and crisp, with the use of vivid colours and great cinematography making the movie pop even more. The movie's soundtrack is eclectic and varied, ranging from classic pop songs, instrumentals and oddly fitting music for some violent moments.

Overall, Grimsby is a hilarious movie that will take the audience on a wild ride, with plenty of laughs and gags. The movie's crude humour and over-the-top action might not be everyone's cup of tea, but those who are fans of Sacha Baron Cohen's work will love it. Strong's straight-faced portrayal balances out Cohen's character and provides an excellent dynamic between the two, while Wilson's character provides the perfect comedic relief. If you're in the mood for a raunchy, action-packed, and genuinely funny movie, then Grimsby is the perfect film for you.
