Looks funny enough, hard to tell from trailers if all the funny bits are in the trailer or if the movie is actually funny. Seems like 2021 is the Cena verse, with this, Fast and Furious 9, Suicide Squad, and the upcoming HBO Peacemaker (SS) tv show

The more interesting thing is this movie is going STRAIGHT to Hulu on Aug 27th, no theatrical window at all. I can see more and more comedies doing that, comedies are basically box office poison at this point

Not worried about Cena's comedy chops. Concerned about the supporting cast-- but I think he can carry them.

LMAO

I read this as “VACCINATION Friends” starring John Cena. That would’ve been so much fucking better.

Most of the funny is in the trailer but movie flows good. Cena does the the crazy drug character as always but everything works, ill put it on again

This was a lot better than I expected. I'd give it a 7.5/10. Worth a watch.

This vastly exceeded expectations based on the trailer, but was also disappointing because there are much better movies that follow this same formula. Had a good share of funny moments though. I have no idea who Lil Rel Howery is but we were both distracted and wondering if Kevin Hart just wasn't available the weekend they shot this. Maybe it was the pacing or the writing in the "falling out" scene and how quickly things turned around, but I felt that entire thing could have been more impactful.

6.5/10 glad we stuck through it

He was pretty good in Bad Trip, which is a interesting premise for a movie. Only 3 actors and the rest are real people reacting. A very different movie from every line being scripted.
