Jeff (Zach Galifianakis and Karen (Isla Fisher) Gaffney live on a picture perfect cul-de-sac in the suburbs. They have just dropped their sons off for summer camp when they notice that new neighbors are moving in next door.  Tim (Jon Hamm) and Natalie (Gal Gadot) are the new neighbors. They are near perfect themselves - gorgeous, accomplished, well-traveled and very cosmopolitan. Jeff and Karen are almost in awe of them. But, Karen begins to get a little suspicious because they seem just a little too perfect. Suddenly, the Gaffneys find themselves involved in an international espionage plot to capture "The Scorpion" because it seems that the Joneses are actually super spies and the Gaffneys have bungled their way into the middle of a mission. Will they all make it out alive?

This movie is cute and funny. The plot is fairly lame and predictable but everyone is just so gorgeous to look at that it makes it bearable. Zach is funny and awkward. Everyone seems to be having a good time. Jon Hamm needs to make more movies. Don't expect any major plot twists or complicated scams. This is a light movie and you will see the ending a mile away. Just go with it and enjoy a few laughs.
