Mark Wahlberg's 'The Family Plan': A Routine Action Comedy with a Twist

"The Family Plan," starring Mark Wahlberg on Apple TV+, is a routine action comedy about a former covert assassin whose past catches up with him. The film follows his attempts to start a new life as a suburban dad, but he is forced to reveal his secret identity when a team of assassins is assigned to kill him. While the film has some exciting and amusing moments, it ultimately falls flat with predictable jokes and repetitive gags. Michelle Monaghan delivers a standout performance, but overall, "The Family Plan" fails to deliver on its high concept.
