Nate Richard of Collider agrees, giving Heads of State a 7 out of 10 for being “stupid in all the right ways.” Idris Elba and John Cena are so great together that they overshadow a lot of the film’s other shortcomings, Richard says, writing:

John Cena of Amazon Prime Video's "Heads of State" is the latest actor to play a president who is ready to defeat the enemy with his bare hands.

Heads of State, the new streaming hit starring Cena and Elba, is a great action comedy, whetting many appetites for more movies like it.
