‘Blockers’
John Cena was a certified scene-stealer when he briefly appeared in the 2015 comedy Trainwreck. But Blockers is the professional wrestler turned actor’s true coming out party. Cena shines in Kay Cannon’s uproarious 2018 comedy, which says a lot considering the cast. The film centers on three parents (Cena, Leslie Mann, and Ike Barinholtz) who try to stop their daughters from losing their virginities on prom night (the terrific trio of Kathryn Newton, Geraldine Viswanathan, and Gideon Adlon). An exceptionally well-written movie that’ll have you laughing out loud, Blockers is a perfect post-New Year’s Day watch.
