Very Enjoyable Film. Vince Vaughn Steals the Show.

Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2021

Ron Howard's Directing on this film about two guys who are trying to launch their business by making a deal with Ford to design a hot car, at least in appearance, feel and sound. Kevin James soldiers the design aspect while Vaughn is the fancy talking partner who works the interested key staff at Ford. At no point are you bored with this trip that is full of surprises. Get in and go for a ride.

Paul S. Person

Pointless Buddy Marital Drama Film

Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2021

This would have worked better as a story about Big Auto and their peculiarities, as the central "gimme" of the plot is a system that will make an electric car that /looks/ like a "muscle car" /sound/ like a "muscle car". Great satire unless, of course, that's actually been done.
But the story isn't really about that. No, it's about two friends, one (A) married, one (B) toying with the idea.
B spots A's wife having an affair and dithers about telling him. And dithers some more.
While dithering, he manages to convince his sister that he is telling her that her husband is stepping out. Which turns out to be the case.
He also confronts A's wife, who is not pleased with this interference in her marriage.
And the other man, an incident which leads to an intervention for gambling.
And so it goes.
But what does the audience care? In my case, not one bit.

Love Vince and Kevin together. This was a great movie if you want to laugh... even cry a little. Creative story and typical Vince Vaughn and Kevin James characters. We thought we had seen it before since it came out a while ago... but we laughed through the whole thing.
