So is this film gong to be one big advert for Uber?, a company that cannot be named, if you step into a local Taxi, where I live.

Latest info on Stuber - http://cityonfire.com/dave-bautista-iko-uwais-and-kumail-nanjiani-go-stuber/ 

"When a mild-mannered Uber driver named Stu (Nanjiani) picks up a passenger (Bautista) who turns out to be a cop hot on the trail of a brutal killer, he's thrust into a harrowing ordeal where he desperately tries to hold onto his wits, his life and his five-star rating."  Iko Uwais plays the blond-headed villain in this trailer -

Just watched this, genuinely one of the most enjoyable films I've seen in ages. Bautista and Nanjiani have a wonderful odd couple dynamic and the script actually takes the time to make points about what masculinity means in the modern age, with the juxtaposition of the hyper macho cop with the sweet Uber driver.  The action is solid (if I see a funnier fight scene than a certain one here this year I'll be surprised!) Iko is somewhat wasted but does get two chances to throw down with Bautista. Very much recommended!
