Freelance (released 10/27/23)

This definitely falls in the mindless action comedy category. It has clever moments here and there but the overall story is generic. The acting is subpar, especially our hero’s estranged wife. It feels like a no-faith action movie that should have been released on a streaming service. It is a shame though because there is star power here with Allison Brie and John Cena. It is predictable and only one thing I thought was going to happen only halfway happened. This is definitely a stream when you are bored one night kind of movie. Not really worth paying for.
