John Cena seems like he could be another Arnold Schwarzenegger.  A big meat lunk who can do action believably, but is smart and self-aware enough that he can do drama and comedy.

Freelance isn’t a great movie, but it is good.  It’s a bodyguard-in-a-dangerous-country movie.  John Cena does a great job with the action.  He has good timing and can deliver the dry wit convincingly. 

Alison Brie may have peaked on Community.  She owned the part of Annie.  In Freelance, there are dozens of actresses who could have been the aggressive journalist.

Christian Slater is always worth watching. 

Freelance doesn’t seem to be available for free on any streaming service, but if it come up, it’s worth watching.  6.5/10
