Ex-special forces operative Mason Pettis (John Cena) is stuck in a dead-end desk job when he reluctantly takes on a freelance gig to provide private security for washed-up journalist Claire Wellington (Alison Brie) as she interviews the ruthless--but impeccably dressed--dictator, Juan Venegas (Juan Pablo Raba). When a military coup breaks out just as she's about to get the scoop of a lifetime, the unlikely trio must figure out how to survive the jungle AND each other in order to make it out alive!

Critics Consensus

Much like a real-life Freelance gig, this sodden action comedy offers no benefits.

If you're looking for a movie that has a decent story and plenty of action, Freelance is a fun, entertaining option.

Leslie Felperin

Guardian

This haphazard comedy-action film mostly plays like the script was written on the discarded roach of a smoked joint, but the likability of the cast makes up for a lot.

Rated: 3/5

Irish Times

You would get more sparks from rubbing a wet flannel with a wetter rock. But try it anyway. It could hardly be more tedious than waiting for Freelance to crawl to its predictable denouement.

Rated: 1/5

Guardian

Brie and Cena look lifeless and blank-faced; they’ve got no chemistry, and the objectionable dynamics of him manfully rescuing her shrieking from the clutches of the bad guys on repeat feel like a satire of the genre – which this isn’t.

Rated: 1/5

Radio Times

Whether traversing the jungle in a spotless suit or pouring a round of drinks during a shoot-out, Raba's broadly comedic presence comes close to making this all worthwhile.

Rated: 2/5

It takes real effort to take comedic talent like Brie and Cena and turn them into … this.

It was better than I thought it would be. I don't particularly care for John Cena but I did enjoy the action and it was a decent story and a well made movie.
