Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

It made about 5 times its budget, but middling reviews (50% on Rotten Tomatoes) and a lukewarm 5.9 out of 10 from audiences held it back. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

What might put you off
  • Rated PG-13. Probably too much for younger kids.
