Stuber: 5 Sterne undercover

An Uber driver is forced to drive around town by a cop who is unable to drive or shoot straight due to temporary blindness. While one is obsessed with 5 star ratings, the other one is obsessed to nab a deadly drug lord. The film is very entertaining. Kumail Nanjiani and Dave Bautista r terrific. The film has genuine hilarious situations n one liners. The script is witty n the film fast paced. As a fan of Iko Uwais, I am disappointed with his screen footage n his unnecessary dyed hair but his martial arts rocks. The film has few hand to hand combat n some bloody shootouts.

A perfect light evening filler where I laughed a lot. Bautista and Nanjinani worked great together. A movie I would probably watch again, which I can not say a lot these days.

Worth watching, not sure why there is so much hate for this movie. We enjoyed it.

Okay, the movie has been out for a while but the theater was decently filled. Granted, the story is not very original but it had some good action scenes and everybody in the audience was laughing and laughing and laughing. In the end I found it entertaining and funny and I liked both main characters.

Police detective Vic Manning (Dave Bautista) is obsessed with criminal Oka Tedjo who killed his partner. His boss Angie McHenry (Mira Sorvino) tells him to spend time with his daughter Nicole (Natalie Morales). Stu (Kumail Nanjiani) is a sad sack, obsessed with friend Becca (Betty Gilpin), and stuck in a dead-end job. Vic is having trouble with his vision and hires Uber driver Stu on a dangerous pursuit of the villain Tedjo.

The pairing starts off a little wonky. The premise is also a little wonky. It doesn't make sense that Stu wouldn't simply call the cops or not drive. Over time, the pairing does grow on me. They have some chemistry and Kumail gets more comedic rather than simply being a pathetic whiner. It's a basic odd couple duo on a road-trip police investigation. It's trying to be 48 Hrs but it's not at that level.
