What to Know

Critics Consensus

Little Brother squanders the strong comic chemistry between John Cena and Eric André on a tonally unfocused script that settles for broad, low-hanging gags and recycled buddy comedy beats.

2.5/5
The film never quite figures out what kind of comedy it wants to be. Go to Full Review

That Cena and André are so good together is all the more striking in a movie that affords them such infrequent overlap. Go to Full Review
Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter Jul 1
If Little Brother feels familiar while you’re watching it, it’s because this is a film so pre-digested that it’s as if a bird ate Twins, What About Bob? and Planes, Trains and Automobiles and then spit the contents into your mouth. Go to Full Review
Dave Golder Radio Times Jul 20
2/5
The pile-up of low-rent slapstick and cringing crass humour frustrates, though the satirical swipes at soulless TV producers are fun. Go to Full Review

2/4
...potentially hilarious subject matter that is, for the most part, employed to lackluster and forgettable effect... Go to Full Review
Bill Brioux Brioux.tv Jul 13
Yes, it is silly, dumb and gross but a) we need to laugh now, and this will make you laugh and b) by the end of the movie, both Cena and André have never been more likable on screen. This odd couple really works. Go to Full Review

Kris K @Kris.402 1d I loved it. Eric Andre and John Cena are great and that guy from Law And Order and the wife and the assistants it was a fun watch and had me laughing out loud several times. I hope to see Eric Andre in more movies See more Josiah M @coffeejoe 6d A blend of fun moments, laughs, and heart felt lessons. See more Saurabh S @Bateman27 Jul 29 Awful, a comedy movie that’s not funny See more James I @James66 Jul 29 just fantastic. eric andre is messed up hilarious as always and did not know what to expect from john cena but he is a killer actor! See more Renaldo D @RT30888824 Jul 27 The movie is funny, but like any film of this type, it doesn't have a good script. See more Carter H @quality_finds Jul 26 Is it a high quality movie? No. This movie isn’t a movie of quality, it’s a movie that teaches a lesson I was thinking of rating this movie less than 3 stars until I went to bed and thought about it and as my next day went on, I thought about it This movie addresses insecurity, comparison, overthinking, and more important mental health problems That’s the art of this movie, the lesson it leaves you with For some, it may be a ego check, and for others it may make them realize they’re the good in someones life, for me it impacted my view on insecurities, self-esteem, and overthinking Which is very important for someone figuring themselves out Whatever this movie means to you, is what gives this movie its meaning I bravely place this movie into the almost 4 stars section, for amazing actor John Cena and comedian Eric Andre at making a film that doesn’t only entertain, but teaches Sometimes the art of movies isn’t quality itself, but the feeling and lesson you are left with 3.5 See more Read all reviews
