Well, that’s not a great way to launch your latest movie. The new action comedy,Freelance, has debuted with the joint-lowestRotten Tomatoes score of all time, with a 0% positive critic rating following its release.The movie, which starsAlison BrieandJohn Cena, centers around Brie’s character, who embarks on a journey to South America for an interview with the authoritarian leader, President Venegas (Juan Pablo Raba).
Cena’s character is recruited to accompany her on this perilous mission. However, when a military coup erupts, the three of them must unite to ensure their survival, leading to a significant clash of cultures that demands the utilization of their individual skills to make it through the ordeal and emerge alive. Thankfully for Cena, while the film may be terrible, at least you can’t see him. Other films fortunate enough to receive a 0% rating from Rotten Tomatoes include the likesGotti,Ballistic: Ecks vs. SeverandJaws: The Revenge— on whichMichael Caineonce famously commented that he had “never seen the film but by all accounts it is terrible. However I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific.”
In his review of the film,Collider’sRoss Bonaimelabelled the film “abysmal”, adding that Cena and Brie deserved better from a terrible script and its lack of jokes. While critics have panned the film,Freelancehas done moderately well with audiences—earning an Audience Score of 78%. With the exception of the summer blockbusterBarbie, Cena’s last handful of films—which includesVacation Friends,Vacation Friends 2,The Independent, andHidden Strike—have all received much lower Audience Scores thanFreelance, despite their Tomatometer scores being a little kinder than 0%.
