Skip it. 'Back in Action' is a by-the-numbers spy comedy that retreads the tired 'retired agents pulled back in' formula without enough wit or originality to justify your time. Unless you're a die-hard Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz fan with nothing better to do, there are sharper action-comedies worth your evening.

Plot

Fifteen years after vanishing from the CIA to start a family, elite spies Matt and Emily jump back into the world of espionage when their cover is blown.
