It's exactly what you think. Over the top action, one liners, and call backs to their other films.
It's completely ridiculous, but tons of fun. The fights are great, stunts insane, and cameos galore. In fact, two of the cameos steal the film. Both are absolutely hilarious and I hope they show up for the sequel.
Idris Elba gives it all the same level of credibility he gave Pacific Rim. He's clearly the actor among action stars, and looked to be having fun.
Oh, and there are pre-credits, mid-credits, and post-credits scenes.

Interesting that the voice of Eteon was one of the 2 cameos.
The plot is straight outta Care Bears married with a generic spy movie. But it's fun, etc, etc.

Right? It made zero sense in a movie and franchise that already is so ridiculous they make Sharknado look like a documentary.

It made me rethink the movie, but looked it up and turns out it was just a move of convenience until he gets cast.

They couldn't have grabbed a producer or key grip to do the voice?

Maybe he really wanted to do it? So you want to piss off Ryan Reynolds?

I think he was playing the CIA version of Deadpool.
