I have just wasted my precious time watching this movie. What was Idris Elba thinking when he signed up for this? Guess he wasn't, and neither was his agent. And with John Cena? Are you kidding me? World's worst actor in my book. This pairing confounds belief. Awful movie. Awful writing and ridiculous occurrences. I have been more entertained at a dentist appointment. I should have known but the reviews (with which I vehemently disagree) did not sound too bad. Like the recent move (action comedy) with Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx. Awful. Anything is a better use of your time. Literally, anything.

You just know Heads of State is a poor film. It was made two years ago and dumped into a streaming platform.

Will Derringer (John Cena) is an action movie star turned idealist and naive President of the USA.

He invites the British Prime Minister Sam Clarke (Idris Elba) a former soldier who dislikes Derringer on a trip to Air Force One.

The plane is sabotaged by terrorist arms dealer Viktor Gradov (Paddy Considine.) Will and Sam are stranded in Belarus and need to get back to safety.

In their absence he NATO is falling apart as secrets have been leaked.

In effect Heads of State is a buddy action movie. Elba is the straight man to Cena, who mugs for the camera.

Some of the action sequences are uninspired as is the screenplay. There are no surprises in the lazily plotted story. It is a very unimaginative movie.

John Cena as Potus? The guy wore skirt outside. They couldn't choose a better actor?

Elba was convincing early in the film, butturned mediocre as the film went on.

And the premise of Cugino as ultra conservative neocon VP was even worse. What was she supposed to be? Trump's caricature?

And that duet speech at the end to defend NATO, it's so pitiful, it'll be remembered as the stain in politics.

And Paddy Considine was a very powerful dramatic actor. This villain role was basically put him in a hole, buried his career and put tombstone of 'Forgetable'. Audience would remehis face with clueless expression "Who?"

I suspected immediately that DNC funded this film with tax payers' money.

Skip it unless you like to rot your brains and throw your IQ into the trash can.

I mean, I knew what I was getting myself in for, but I was still disappointed nonetheless. Heads of State is one of those films you wish someone had taken seriously at some point. Like, in the initial pitch meeting where someone might have said hang on, this story is preposterous. Or in the table reading where the actors might have expressed concerns about the terrible script, plot cliches conveniences and outright contrivances. Or the terrible puns. Or maybe the film company might have recognised that what they had on their hands was not a work of art worthy of release but rather a kindergartener's finger painting destined for the fridge.

Anyway, they didn't, and I actually watched it. I'm still in disbelief that I made it to the final credits.

Dear God, why did Idris Elba sign up for this? After the shameless disaster that was Beast (which proudly earned my IMDb 1-star rating), I thought he'd learned his lesson. Heads of State is marginally better-there's some lowbrow buddy humor-but the plot is so absurd it feels like it was drafted by a political PR intern hopped up on energy drinks.

Cena and Elba have zero chemistry, and no amount of flashy CGI can hide how embarrassingly thin and childish this script is. It's a loud, brainless popcorn spectacle that vanishes from memory within hours. Actually, the only way this could get dumber is if Trump and Starmer played themselves in a sequel.

Looks like Idris Elba and John Cena are the producers. So, you need to tolerated their antics. Idris Elba manages well. But, John Cena acts his own (stupid) character. Really irritating to watch him as the President of America....come on guys!!

Priyanka Chopra as Noel does her justice. Thank God, she doesn't join the two leading jokers.

The storyline is a matter of a joke. Two heads of State on their own!!

Paddy Considine tries to act his menacing part well. But, it doesn't go well with his physique and his voice. Pathetic villain.

Totally. The movie is a great trash and people call it as fun....seriously?

If you are a tiktok scroller and you like dumb predictable scripts. Then this movie for you. The scenes look like a b rated dead movie. The acting is poor. The fight scene are similar to watching slow Halle B in John Wick. Slow and unrealistic. The stunt men literally needed to stand still for them to finish off their rotations in some fight scenes. Lost interest in the movie 40min in and I tried. Its a B movie and really John Cena? He could of done better. He is a really cool kind of actor. Like to see him in better movies. The explosion are a fair few. But the script is poor. Seems like it was just AI generated.
