Heads of State
The UK Prime Minister and US President have a public rivalry that risks their countries' alliance. But when they become targets of a powerful enemy, they're forced to rely on each other as they go on a wild, multinational run. Allied with Noel, a brilliant MI6 agent, they must find a way to thwart a conspiracy that threatens the free world. From TMDB

60 of 183 · most liked firstI am watching the new Amazon movie, HEADS OF STATE and it's depressing how quickly the idea of a President who is a decent person who cares about Americans has become quaint.

unlabelledView post →Colour me surprised: the fake-looking Prime movie "Heads of State" (starring John Cena, Idris Elba and Priyanka Chopra) is a blast. "What if a dumb action star was POTUS" may not be an imaginative or politically sensitive premise, but it pays dividends. www.indiewire.com/criticism/mo...
unlabelledView post →That "John Cena as the president and Idris Elba as the prime minister" movie pisses me off because it's called "Heads of State" and the PM is *not the head of state* and yes I know this is almost certainly the least stupid part of the movie
unlabelledView post →Okay, it's not a brilliant film but HEADS OF STATE managed to make me laugh out loud with the best HOW DID YOU FIND US montage I've seen in ages.
unlabelledView post →Watching the Amazon film "Heads of State", so far the most wildly unrealistic thing is that the British Prime Minister is not simply a flunkie of the American President, the latter of whom actually cares what the former thinks of him.
unlabelledView post →I just started watching the John Cena / Idris Elba film “Heads Of State” and I am afraid that I must preemptively rate it zero stars as the Prime Minister is head of government, not head of state, and if they can’t even get that right what else are they going to get wrong?
unlabelledView post →Heads of State — the new movie where John Cena is the President and Idris Elba is the Prime Minister — was a bunch of dumb fun for about 90 minutes before it became just dumb-dumb for the last 30 minutes
unlabelledView post →We watched Heads of State last night, it's a tremendously silly Amazon film with John Cena and Idris Elba playing Potus and PM forming an unlikely alliance to create world peace while being chased by Russian baddies and blowing up helicopters. We enjoyed it very much but something was nagging at me

unlabelledView post →apparently Amazon Prime manages to bang out one good action movie a year. in 2025 it was Heads of State. is The Wrecking Crew this year's winner?
unlabelledView post →You may think a movie called "Heads of State" with John Cena and Idris Elba that's supposed to be an action comedy might be "fun" or at least "cute." Do not fall for this. It's the cinematic equivalent of throwing up in the trunk of a hot car.
unlabelledView post →Just watched Heads of State. Daft, popcorn action movie but plenty of fun. Love Idris Elba.
unlabelledView post →AHA! It was a film not a tv show and it was Heads of State. Which is IMMENSE fun, highly recommend.
unlabelledView post →#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched A mixed bag. Heads of State was a great popcorn movie. Dumb fun, but sometimes that's exactly what you need. 92 Legendary La Rose Noire, HK, 1992 Heads of State, US, 2025 Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land, Taiwan, 1992 Madame Freedom, S. Korea, 1956
unlabelledView post →this evening we watched the movie Heads of State. Supremely well presented, highly enjoyable tosh with an excellent cast who knew precisely what they were doing. (Including the incidental rebukes to the current UK and US governments)
unlabelledView post →THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY: John Cena. I love the guy! He’s been great fun in every movie or TV show I’ve seen him in. I saw Heads of State earlier this week. It was exciting, heartfelt and hilarious. I’d love to appear in a project with him. Twins 2026? 7-4-25.
unlabelledView post →It's been a cultural weekend, with Shakespeare at the Globe last night, and tonight Heads of State, an action movie with John Cena as the US President and Idris Elba as the UK Prime Minister.
unlabelledView post →Wonder why our local shops, businesses, cafes and takeaways are closing? Amazon's not-paying-tax policy enables them to take your money and plough it into outdated rubbish like action comedy Heads of State, with Idris Elba and John Cena as political ass-kickers.2/5 film-authority.com/2025/07/05/h...
unlabelledView post →The movie "Heads of State" (with Idris Elba, John Cena, and Priyanka Chopra) is a perfect July 4th/Summer action movie. 5/5 stars #HeadsOfState

unlabelledView post →Congrats to Amazon's "Heads of State," this year's recipient of the Maybe We Need To Stop Giving Outstanding Movie for Television Emmy Nominations nomination. #Emmys
unlabelledView post →Last night we watched Heads of State, an action movie in which Idris Elba plays the ex-military UK Prime Minister & John Cena plays a former action star turned US President I think it was pretty decent! Shares a lot of DNA with that new Viola Davis presidential action movie but more comedy
unlabelledView post →Halfway thru watching #HeadsOfState and it’s just a big heaping pile of fun. Everybody in it just seems to have had a ball making this film. It’s fluff, but the entertaining kind.
unlabelledView post →This extraordinarily long and detailed review, in Foreign Policy, of the movie Heads of State, about a UK Prime Minister and a US President in an Air Force One hijacking heist, somehow does not mention that one of the two is not actually a head of state foreignpolicy.com/2025/07/04/h...
unlabelledView post →Watched THE WRECKING CREW (2026) the 7️⃣1️⃣4️⃣th film I've seen with an exploding helicopter. 🚁💥📽️ This was pretty decent. Certainly a whole lot better than the Prime's big action buddy movie from last year, the utterly insipid Heads Of State.
unlabelledView post →He's very good in Pacific Rim and RocknRolla remains a movie I'm amazed exists it's so much fun. But to my tremendous surprise, Heads of State. Dude gets the joke, finds the heart of the role and anchors the movie.
unlabelledView post →Watched HEADS OF STATE (2025) the 6️⃣7️⃣9️⃣th film I've seen with an exploding helicopter. 🚁💥📽️ It's also the 1️⃣1️⃣2️⃣th film I've found where someone says 'We got company'. Also an example of Chekhov's fish & chips. Although someone needs to tell John Cena that vinegar only goes on the chips.
unlabelledView post →Heads of State is a very odd movie. The plot centers around NATO instability, features a celebrity U.S. president, an America First U.S. president bent on dismantling NATO, and a Russian villain, yet it's still completely divorced from the contemporary politics surrounding Ukraine.
unlabelledView post →The movie HEADS OF STATE with Idris Elba and John Cena is a rollicking action packed romp. We laughed out loud a lot.
unlabelledView post →I wouldn’t say Heads of State was a good movie, it was sort of enjoyable?
unlabelledView post →Heads of State is a textbook politic- action film; there are fights in tight spaces
unlabelledView post →I've been left unsupervised so I'm watching a terrible action film. Heads of State. No, don't tell me what happens in the end! 😄

unlabelledView post →Watching the ridiculous Heads of State movie because.
unlabelledView post →I just had my heart wrenched out by #Countdown, and I think the only thing that's gonna fix me is this Heads of State movie with John Cena and Idris Elba. Not everything needs to be high art to be worth making. 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️
unlabelledView post →I did not expect HEADS OF STATE to be the best of the new action movies this July 4th weekend, but here we are.
unlabelledView post →We just watched Heads of State and it feels like that whole movie was cooked up in a lab specifically for me. Not enough shirts coming off though. 😤
unlabelledView post →So I’m still pretty sick and I’m watching the new Amazon movie “Heads of State” and not gonna lie- it’s pretty fun! Worth a watch
unlabelledView post →Heads Of State is an extremely stupid film made by some pretty smart people. Unhinged needle drops, smartly choreographed set-pieces, great chemistry between Elba and Cena, and lines like "says you, the sheep nipple aficionado?" Way more fun than you'd expect.
unlabelledView post →Now rewatching Heads of State (2025)! 📽
unlabelledView post →Okay but "Heads of State" was a ridiculously-premised fun action buddy movie with a Good Actually pro-NATO anti-MAGA message, which was neat.
unlabelledView post →I watched Heads of State. It's a fun action movie that doesn't even pretend to care how Nato actually operates. It's really carried by the charisma of the lead actors. Worth watching for a fun, easy afternoon's entertainment.
unlabelledView post →Heads of State What saves this from being a standard action film from Amazon is definitely Idris Elba and John Cena's performances and dynamic. As such, some of the jokes do land and some of the action have some fun even with the bad CG. Makes up for the predictable story

unlabelledView post →I watched Heads of State last night and it was a fine movie. Some fun action, some comedy, everyone did a fine job. However Jack Quaid absolutely fucking stole the show in his scenes. Just THE GOAT!!

unlabelledView post →after Suicide Squad and now Heads of State i have come to the conclusion that i will watch pretty much any movie that pairs up Idris Elba and John Cena
unlabelledView post →Prime recommended Heads of State & are you telling me there is a movie where John Cena plays the President of the USA & Idris Elba plays the Prime Minister of the UK and I’m supposed to suspend belief about the buffness & attractiveness of world leaders? Yes, absolutely I am #NowWatching this.
unlabelledView post →Just got done watching the movie "Heads of State" wasn't too bad, a little hooky but entertaining. Now I need my rest and here is y'all's good night message.

unlabelledView post →The Idris Elba / John Cena movie Heads of State is accidentally hilarious given recent events. (The core plot involved Cena, as the US President, trying to keep NATO together in an action movie sort of way.)
