Manuel São Bento 3/10 Jun 09, 2026
Check out my full review @ https://www.manuelsbento.com/balls-up-2026-a-frustratingly-dull-misstep-in-raunchy-comedy/

Rating: D

BALLS UP is a frustratingly dull experience that collapses under its own absurd premise. Mark Wahlberg and Paul Walter Hauser try their best, but the hit-or-miss humor and terrible visual effects leave them completely stranded. As a native Portuguese speaker, the cringeworthy Brazilian accents and butchered pronunciations were especially painful to sit through. Peter Farrelly aims for silly, raunchy fun, but delivers a generic, episodic misstep that completely misses the mark.
