Netflix released the official trailer for You People on January 5, 2023, and it offers a peek into several hilarious moments from the film. The movie immediately establishes the crux of the plot: protagonist Ezra Cohen struggles with his relationships and is disappointed that he's never met a woman who understands him.

Although the trailer is a little over three minutes, it doesn't give away any spoilers, and sets the carefree, lighthearted tone of the film that fans of buddy comedies would certainly love. Here's a brief description of the movie's plot, as per Netflix's Tudum:

''Kenya Barris’ directorial debut, which he co-wrote with star Jonah Hill, puts an interfaith, culture-clash twist on the relationship rite of passage. The film follows Ezra and Amira as they hilariously navigate the treacherous waters that link family and romance.''

Based on the trailer and synopsis, viewers can expect a thoroughly entertaining, wild buddy comedy that explores a number of themes relevant in modern society like cultural conflicts, family, love, and modern-day relationships, among various other things.

The movie was released in select cinemas on January 20, 2023, and received highly positive reviews from viewers and critics, who raved about the film's sharp writing, performances by the actors, and humor, among other things.
