Interesting premise. The "controlled life turned upside down by a sibling" trope can be hilarious if done well. Fingers crossed the writing is sharp. Also, nice to see a mention of his film with our own Priyanka Chopra doing so well!
Respect to Cena for his legendary wrestling career. 17-time champion is no joke. Wishing him all the best in his full-time acting journey now. The man is a hard worker, that's for sure.
Eric Andre is chaotic energy personified. Pairing him with John Cena's more straight-laced character is a genius casting move. This could be the perfect mindless fun watch for the weekend.
Honestly, I feel a bit tired of the same Hollywood formula comedies. Hope this brings something fresh to the table. The director's previous work was decent, so there's hope. Will wait for the trailer before getting excited.
Netflix has been releasing some good content lately. Hope this adds to the list! The plot reminds me a bit of those Bollywood movies where the sorted NRI's life is disrupted by a relative from back home. Universal theme! 😄
