BACK IN ACTION 2

“Back in Action” marks Cameron Diaz’s return to the acting game. She hasn’t been in anything since her self-imposed “retirement” ten years ago, and she didn’t exactly leave on good terms, starring in dismal comedies “Sex Tape” and “The Other Woman,” also participating in a misguided remake of “Annie.” She was stuck in sameness, and chooses formula to refresh her star stature in “Back in Action,” joining a streaming actioner that’s similar to most efforts made for home viewing (including “Trigger Warning,” “The Union,” and “Lift”). Diaz and co-star Jamie Foxx try to look excited throughout the endeavor, but the generic nature of the writing (credited to Brendan O’Brien and Seth Gordon, who also directs) flattens the viewing experience, finding violence too glossy and laughs too limited in this spy game that resembles many other secret agent adventures.
