Why watch the movie Ricky Stanicky?
"With Ricky Stanicky, director Peter Farrelly (more recently known for the Oscar-winning Green Book) returns to the type of comedies for which he is best known, in the vein of films like There's Something About Mary or Dumb and Dumber. This movie follows a group of childhood friends who, after using a fake friend named Ricky as an alibi, have continued using him as an excuse throughout their adult lives to avoid responsibilities. When the truth is at risk of coming to light, the friends decide to hire a dubious actor (John Cena) to play the supposed Ricky Stanicky, a lie that soon reaches uncontrollable and chaotic proportions. It's a somewhat old-fashioned comedy for contemporary sensibilities. However, if you enjoy Cena's comedic talents (which are considerable), or if you liked the mentioned 90s comedies, this movie might be for you."
