Vacation Friends

I kept watching even though it was not intention. The funny parts keep coming... very light and likeable. Good production and the acting fits the movie. In this type of film you know what to expect... and it delivers.

Fun movie where the characters happen to be of different races but they don't make a big deal about "race", have stupid offensive racial jokes, or bring up the topic at all. Refreshing.

For some reason when I saw John Cena's name appearing I wasn't too excited about watching this movie. Wrestling characters are to me, fake and very annoying to watch but I have to give it to him as I thought he was very funny as an actor. As was the rest of the cast in Vacation Friends. I laughed a lot with this comedy and I wasn't even baked so maybe the next time I'll rewatch this little gem I will get stoned first to have the ultimate experience. The story is simple, easy to follow, and has some really good moments of comedy. Maybe it's not for everyone but that's always the case with comedies as everybody has a different taste of humor. In my case, Vacation Friends is just the right kind of humor that I needed and enjoyed.

Well, this movie actually turned out to be a surprise. Yeah, initially I hadn't really expected much from it, as it was a comedy with John Cena in one of the leading roles. But I opted to watch the movie, and give it a fair chance.

Turns out that writers Tom Mullen, Tim Mullen and Clay Tarver actually managed to compile a story that was rather enjoyable. It was a solid mix of storytelling, character development and good old laughs. So yeah, "Vacation Friends" proved to be a rather wholesome and entertaining movie.

"Vacation Friends" is a feel-good comedy that is laced with some genuinely funny moments that supplement the storyline quite well.

The movie does have a good ensemble of casted actors and actresses. And I have to admit that John Cena does actually carry the movie quite well with his performance here, proving that he is more than just the generic action movie buff. I am not familiar with Lil Rel Howery, Yvonne Orji or Meredith Hagner, but they definitely were nicely cast and put on good performances. And the on-screen chemistry between John Cena and Lil Rel Howery was just brilliant.

I was genuinely entertained by director Clay Tarv's 2021 comedy, and it is a movie that I can warmly recommend you sit down to watch if you're in for an evening of good old fashioned comedy.

My rating of "Vacation Friends" lands on a six out of ten stars.

I liked this movie a lot! Of course is very predictable, but it's cute. I thought that Cena was funny. The guy who played Marcus is like Kevin Hart but less funny. Yvonne is very nice and the blond lady too.

It's a movie to chill and have some fun. That's all !!!
