The Love Punch (2013)

Written and directed by Joel Hopkins, this is a lame comedy starring Pierce Brosnan and Emma Thompson as a divorced couple who set off on a silly mission to steal a diamond in the south of France. 

What might have been an interesting romantic comedy becomes a deliberately absurd slapstick caper. The actors are all strong (Timothy Spall and Celia Imrie also star) but the script just isn’t funny enough and their talents are wasted on something half-baked and crudely forgettable.
