I wonder if Dolph isn't playing an older version of John Cena interviewed years later...

Kevin Bacon and JJ Abrahams are in this too apparently, what a crazy cast! Tood bad it will be short cameos for most of them...

In the real Tour De France, which as just begun this week end, the journalist Matthieu BOEDEC compare the german cyclist Marcel Kittel to the unofficial doppelganger of Dolph Lundgren in this article lol

Los Angeles Times
As memorably proposed in “Spinal Tap,” whose techniques and spirit are much in evidence here, there is a fine line between stupid and clever, a line that “Tour de Pharmacy” happily smudges until two become indistinguishable; it feels enlightened and idiotic at once. It’s the sort of comedy that makes room for a parody of French New Wave film and for explicit penis jokes, for dialect humor (Lundgren’s identical pronunciation of “cheetah” and “cheater” is the basis of one bit) and a cartoon about red blood cells that ends in a corpuscular race riot. Small motifs are recycled from “7 Days”: revealing menswear, parodies of Scandinavian media, debt as motivation.

It’s a sketch, essentially, effectively blown out to 40 minutes — not too short, not too long. Apart from the generally good jokes and the amusing imitations of period style, what makes “Tour de Pharmacy” good company is the overarching sense of play.

That describes a lot of modern comedy, for better or worse, the sense that the players are on board primarily for the good time and camaraderie as much as for the material or the paycheck. It’s a feeling the modesty of this production only enhances.

“Tour de Pharmacy″ is a tour de farce of bad taste, unsophisticated humor, brief nudity, and absolutely no redeeming values at all except that it’s really funny — and, oh, so badly needed right about now.

Andy Samberg, director Jake Szymanski and writer Murray Miller also explain why their "30 for 30"-inspired comedy, largely shot in four days, doesn't flinch from male nudity.

This was hilarious. It's an ensemble so nobody has a ton of material but pretty much all of Dolph's lines are funny.

Danny Glover also had me laughing hard.
