If you enjoyed hearing Bert tell the story, you’ll probably enjoy this. A ton of fun, and lots of strong laughs. Iva Babić managed to unexpectedly steal the show with some great moments. Don't sleep on Family Matters!

It's ok at best. Bert can't act even if his life depended on it. He's an above average standup and that's about it. I don't understand the hype. Decent attempt, very goofy performaces though. 6 /10

This was SO much fun. I knew almost nothing about Bert Kreischer going in, and I absolutely loved it. I was expecting crass comedy. What I was not expecting was [spoiler]a massive John Wick influence. [/spoiler] Mark Hamill was great, and Iva Babić was fantastic. And it looks really good - dare I even say artistic? [spoiler]I can't believe it's only a $20 million budget.[/spoiler] This movie has no right being this good. Did I do that??

There is almost something here but it’s completely drowning in so much plot. I root for action comedies but if you are going for it you need the action to rock it or you need the comedy to be so good it doesn’t matter. This mostly has neither outside of a few moments but I did like Bert’s action moments at the end.

Nope, this just wasn't for me. We start off watching a pretty unfunny stand up routine from "Bert" (Bert Kreischer) that pretty quickly has an old Russian gent shooting at his telly! So far, I'm in accord with him. Turns out, though, that he's not just annoyed at the act, but that 20-odd years ago t More

Happy surprises that come out of left field are sometimes the best, especially when it comes to low-concept comedies. I went in to the awful looking “The Machine” with below-zero expectations, but came out absolutely charmed by just about everything in the movie. Nothing about this film should� More
