Spenser Confidential is an American action-comedy movie, directed by Peter Berg and produced by Mark Wahlberg himself, along with Stephen Levinson. This movie is based on Ace Atkins' novel 'Wonderland'. The plot revolves around the character of Spenser, a former Boston detective, who gets out of prison after serving five years for assaulting his superior officer. After being released, Spenser plans to leave the city and start a new life in Arizona. But things take an unexpected turn when he discovers that his former colleague and mentor, Captain John Boylan, has been murdered.

Spenser becomes determined to solve the mystery of Boylan's death and sets out on a mission to bring the culprit to justice. With the help of his ex-girlfriend Cissy, his roommate, and fellow boxer Hawk, played by Winston Duke, and Henry, his reliable friend played by Alan Arkin, Spenser uncovers a major conspiracy involving corrupt police officers, drug dealers, and politicians.

During the course of his investigation, Spenser finds himself in trouble with the law and is also targeted by the criminals who want to silence him. But Spenser, who has nothing to lose, fights back with all his might and uses his skills as a detective and a boxer to bring the truth to light.

Mark Wahlberg plays the lead role of Spenser, who is a charismatic and witty character with a strong moral compass. Wahlberg's performance is compelling and he brings depth and nuance to the character. Winston Duke, who plays Hawk, is a standout in the movie with his impeccable comic timing and physical presence. His chemistry with Wahlberg is also noteworthy.

Alan Arkin, who plays Henry, provides the movie with a much-needed dose of humor and levity. Arkin's character is a wisecracking ex-boxer who is also Spenser's friend and mentor. Arkin's performance is hilarious and adds to the overall entertainment quotient of the movie.

The movie also has a strong supporting cast, including Iliza Shlesinger, who plays Spenser's ex-girlfriend Cissy, and Bokeem Woodbine, who plays a corrupt police officer.

One of the highlights of the movie is its fast-paced action scenes, which are choreographed and executed brilliantly. The fight scenes, in particular, are intense and gritty, and showcase the skills of Wahlberg and Duke as boxers. The movie also features some high-speed car chases and explosions, which add to the excitement.

Another highlight of the movie is its soundtrack, which features a mix of classic rock and hip-hop. The music complements the fast-paced action and adds to the overall energy of the movie.

Overall, Spenser Confidential is a highly entertaining and engaging movie that combines action and comedy in a seamless manner. The movie has a strong cast, compelling plot, and impressive action scenes, which make it a must-watch for fans of the genre.

Spenser Confidential is a 2020 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 51 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.2 and a MetaScore of 49.
