"This is a pretty generic action/comedy but is a quick and fun watch. John Cena is establishing himself as a fairly decent comedic action star. He's likeable and has a good screen presence. Alison Brie was good in it too. 7/10"

"I was looking so forward to seeing this film. I finally got my folks to try it with me. It was garbage. The journalist is a B. The script is terrible. I'm not sure if we even made it 20 minutes into the film before we had to turn it off. "

"It was okay the action caught my attention, but there were some moments where cgi was terrible. It’s an alright movie for John Cena to be in. "

"The movie is an entertaining watch, you won't get bored. Cena is quite convincing as actor, if you see him through the years, you actually will notice he leveled up in acting and showing emotions. The comedy is ok. It is giving vibes of early 2000 movies, action is good too. Soldier life and emotional twists are narrated accurately as well as the hinted geological issues with third world countries. Over all its a good action movie, but story line is recycled with intelligent moments, which make it brilliant at moments. I did not lol but I was like " bloody brilliant wow" at moments. I recommend. No spice scenes and no gore. Lots of bullets end explosions though. Enjoy #freelance #johncena #actioncomedy "

"John Cena is likable enough, but he is best in small doses in a supporting role. He is just not a leading man to me. There was zero chemistry Alison Brie, so the tension was non existent. There isn't much of a story to speak of and what's here is a mish mash of things from other better movies in this genre. Not much action and whats here is generic. The comedy fell flat most of the time. It was almost like they needed a laugh track. Only Cena super fans should watch...everyone else can skip this. Please check out my podcast Mostly Low Budget Reviews with Clarence for a full break down. Link is in the bio. Thank you!"

"This is another entertaining action/comedy with John Cena and Alison Brie. It’s been interesting watching Cena star is so many films the last few years and I always love watching Brie, so I knew seeing the two paired in this film would be interesting but this is just your typical action comedy movie with a few dramatic elements here and there. It’s definitely a fun quick watch if you’re in the mood for some comedic action!"

"regal mystery movie (10/09): i for one am a proponent for these mid-2000s action comedies"

"Lots of action and plenty of comedic moments but surprised me! There were some very real underlying touches of soldier life & health after service in addition to some good observations of corporate interests being advanced under the guise of "democracy" in vulnerable countries. All of this in something fast & easy to watch...Glad I did."

"Easy to watch comedy action flick with some surprisingly real geopolitical messages. "

"It was an average, somewhat cliche’ Action Comedy movie - but it was entertaining enough "
