95 minutes
Starring: John Cena, Keegan-Michael Key, John Leguizamo
Playing
with Fire is a fluff movie, but it’s a family fun fluff
movie. I took my 5 year old grandson and
9 year old granddaughter to the theatres to see it and they both laughed out
loud. They really liked it and the 5 year old could hardly wait to see it
again. Me on the other hand, thought it
wasn’t “all that” but it made my grandkids laugh and that’s all that matters.
John Cena plays Jake Carson, a straight lace fire
superintendent to a house of firefighters and their dog, Masher. They are called to a house fire where Jake finds 3 kids inside. After he saves them, he takes them back to
the station house for the night till they can locate their parents. This is when all the mayhem and silliness
begins. What’s a family movie without
silly gags, some poop talk, and heart tug moments when the big guy cries?
The movie does have some sweet moments in it as they come
to find out what family is and what it
means to have a family. It’s not a “10”
by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s worth a family night together.
