"I have no idea."
It does not take too long into this supposed comedy before you realise that it is a desperately weak film that does not improve as it goes along. It has an all-pervasive feel of emptiness, with very limp dialogue and an unfortunate lack of humour, clearly wanting to capture the feel of a modern female-led Porky's or American Pie but missing the mark. It touches lightly on well-worn themes of growing up, Prom Night, parenthood and even female rights but never really does anything with them, with low-rent vomiting, beer butt-chugging and near-sex scenes rounding out this sorry package. The teens make little impression, and as the trio of parents John Cena tries so hard with little return, Ike Barinholtz tries too hard, and Leslie Mann has so little with which to work, making Blockers a very long and unrewarding film to sit through.
