Walt Disney’s Ralph Breaks the Internet, which saw its protagonist nearly destroy the Internet in rage after his best gal pal expressed a desire to live a life separate from his, was a solid hit

Stuber, starring Dave Bautista and Kumail Nanjiani’s (surprisingly hilarious) R-rated action comedy throwback was very much about varying definitions of masculinity and how stereotypes cause men undue suffering.
