    Got a Little Cheesy and Predictable Towards the End

    Upon the death of their father, three brothers named "Sam Carey" (John Cena), "Leo Carey" (Ethan Embry) and "Douglas Carey" (Boyd Holbrook) join their sister "Nina Carey" (Amy Smart) for the reading of his will. To their surprise they all find out that each of them have inherited $3 million dollars. However, as the executor of the will Nina tells them that receiving it is contingent upon all three of them forming a business and working together in it for 2 years. Although none of them like the idea, it just so happens that Leo is a bail bondsman who is liable for $250,000 for a crook named "Edgar Rodriguez" (Rio Alexander) who apparently has fled to Mexico. Since he doesn't have that kind of money he appeals to Sam (who is a policeman and has recently been suspended indefinitely for assault) and Douglas (who has just gotten out of prison) to go with him to Mexico to help retrieve Edgar. Since neither of them have anything better to do they reluctantly agree. Along the way they find out that Edgar may have been involved in the recent kidnapping of a billionaire and that there is a reward or $5 million to anybody who has information that leads to his rescue. Naturally, this interests them as well. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this movie started off really good. Unfortunately, it got a bit cheesy and predictable towards the end which left me somewhat disappointed. Even so, I suppose it was an okay film for the time spent and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Average.

    A very funny movie how a dysfunctional family works together to get 3 million dollars. John Cena is actually funny in it. I say B+

    "What are the 3 of us gonna do together for 2 years without killing each other?" After the death of their father 3 brothers are reunited with their sister and get news about the will. They will each inherit 3 million dollars, if they can work together for 2 years. That's where the problems begin. This is a very surprising movie. Very funny and enjoyable throughout. Nothing really that amazing here but very entertaining. This is the type of movie that you can predict what happens next as you watch, but that does not hurt the movie at all. This is a different type of role for John Cena as it is more comedy oriented but enough of him beating people up to appease his fans. This is not a movie to rush out and watch, but this is one that you will not be disappointed when you see it. Overall, a very funny and entertaining way to spend an hour and a half. I give it a B+.

    I've seen worse.

    Script is part old hack and part OK that's kind of new. The actors are all much better than this. The director did nothing wrong. I just get the feeling that this was an extended screen test to see if someone could make a movie. Then the studio threw together a budget that would have been great in the 80's but totally failed in today's dollars. It doesn't suck but ehhhh....

    It's not a bad story, but it's for Cena fans only.

    John Cena stars as the oldest of three bothers, whose father just died and creates a will that would make all three rich if they can get along together long enough to go into business together for two years.

    It's sounds like a comedy, but Cena plays a cop while his brothers are a bail bonds man and a thief, who while trying to track down a skipped bail end up evolved in taking down kidnappers.

    It reminds me of another movie, the Marine 3. It has the same format in which the WWE recruits one of it's superstars to head up one of their movies but the movie is littered with so much stuff that The wrestling superstar gets overshadowed a bit (as a safety net just in case he cannot hold the film down)

    Although Cena is a way bigger attraction than The Miz, he was far more center stage in this movie and does not need as much help, but I guest they wanted to make sure as the film does have a lot of drama.

    It's more complex: Three bothers who don't know each other well because of their drunken father, trying to get along, when they all got their own serious problems. A business man not paying attention to his son, cause he's too busy making cash, gets kidnapped by the people he screwed over, plus many more elements as the film goes on.

    It's not that bad of a story, that adds dimensions to Cena's one track acting methods. He's not much of an actor but he stays in the Cena character, which is what you came for.

    I wold have expected the focus on all three brothers would have met getting bigger names to play the other two brothers, but that's not what happen. Amy smart was the only other well known actor I see in the film, but her part its very small.

    Otherwise it actually not a bad picture, better, definitely if you are a Cena fan.

    Bloody awful

    I'm a pure action fan, but i think John Cena only truly made one good film and it was Legendary, with stars such as Danny Glover who put this movie over very well... and it wasn't even an action film and he was intense, dramatic, and it was a short role. As a lead role, just like in wrestling when he's too much in main events, he bored many people. It's a true fact, many people chant ''Cena S/ck'' we never see this in the history for a non-heel character. A top pure face in fact. He always bring the same thing to the table, he's not bad, he's not good either ! He's above-average. With this film, i thought they can't do worse than Inside Out... with probably the worst non-actor (HHH) to ever do a film... well they do ! Forget this one ! Poor Amy Smart, she try to do something, but just like the terribly bad Dave Batista movie called ''House of the Rising Sun'', she can't do good with another wrestler either !! WWE Films should probably die just like the XFL Projects back in the day. The thing is that it continues to go bad to worse. It's an embarrassment to watch their movies.
