Warner Bros.' ‘Central Intelligence' shows anyone is hero
material
By Eunice Moseley
Kevin Hart (Ride Along2) in a Warner Bros. Pictures' presentation titled Central Intelligence along side heavy weight actor/wrestler
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (Fast 8) told me it was going to be funny when I screened it so I came prepare to have
my jar-locked from laughing too hard, but I was pleasantly surprised by the serious messages which showed me that anyone is
hero material and that bullies never win - they just seem to. Released June 17, 2016 Central Intelligence also stars Oscar
nominated Amy Ryan (Gone Baby Gone) and Aaron Paul ("Breaking Bad").
The Rated PG-13 comedic/drama is action packed and follows the lives of two high school classmates of the year 1996
in Baltimore, one is Calvin Joyner played by Hart ("What Now" comedy tour) a class "hero" with good grades
and awesome athletic abilities and the other is over-weight Bob Stone played by Johnson (San Andreas) a classmate picked on
by bullies so bad Calvin came to his rescue when no one else would. Both of their paths crossed that day and it would be the
reason why Calvin is chosen by Bob, a seemingly rogue CIA Agent, to help save the country from chaos and destruction.
At a time when Calvin the accountant is unhappy at work, which means his wife Maggie
Joyner played by Danielle Nicolet ("Born Again Virgin") is unhappy, he is contacted by his old "friend"
Bob during a 20th high school anniversary celebration who is now the very muscled Agent Jones. Unfortunately his own people
at the CIA are after him dead or alive for the "seemingly" murder of his partner Agent Phil played by three-time
Emmy Award winner Aaron Paul (Exodus: Gods & Kings). Jones needs Joyner's skills for numbers to help him solve the case,
which could mean the fall of the United States if he doesn't, before the CIA - lead by Agent Pamela Harris who is played by
SAG Award winner Amy Ryan ("The Office") - catches up with him. Through lots of action and much more in laughter
the two somehow form a partnership but can they save the country?
