A new film about John Cena arrives on Prime Video
Former wrestler, John Cena he has distinguished himself in recent years in a comic register that suits him. We saw it inside Parental control (2018), Our worst friends (2021), and also in Barbie (2023) time for a cameo. Added to this is the series Pacifier (2022) in which he plays the protagonist role.
But the actor took part not only in the masterpieces. And in his filmography we find some very little considered feature films. We saw this recently with X-Traction projectan action movie that was made murdered by critics, but was a hit on Netflix. And now with Freelancewhich landed on Prime Video on November 28.
The very low ratings of Freelance
Again the film was trashed by the profession. ON Rotten tomatoes, Freelance screened upon its release in American theaters the 0% rating. thanks to the first 15 reviews. A valuation that has increased slightly since then, rising to the present day 7%. And even if on the public side the rating rises to 77%, up Metacritic, it is certainly not more engaging. The film shows a rating of 24/100 for the press and 5.1/10 for the public.
Finally, up IMDB, the score is only 5.6/10. And as for the box office, Freelance was a huge success, barely grossing $5 million in U.S. revenue, and then just barely 8 million dollars worldwidefor a budget of 40 million dollars.
What is it about?
However, everyone can form their own opinion on the matter Freelance discovering it on Prime Video. If you want to give it a try, know that the film stars John Cena in the role of Mason Pettits, former member of the special forces. Despite his forced retirement, he is contacted to ensure the protection of Claire Wellington, a journalist who wishes to travel to a small country in South America to interview President Juan Venegas. Just once there, a coup happens and Mason finds himself having to save the journalist and the president from danger.
Freelance is an action comedy with its share of explosions and absurd situations. On paper the film seemed up to par, especially with a likable cast. We find him there next to John Cena Alison Brie in the role of journalist. Juan Pablo Raba plays the president while Alice Eve and Christian Slater also appear. Finally, we owe this feature film to Pierre Morelknown for producing in particular Taken (2008).
