Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

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

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: A natural pick for people who'll be humming afterwards and anyone who's survived an office job. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. A good follow-up to Bo Burnham: Make Happy or A Hard Day's Night. Anyone who's had a job will recognize these people.
The mood: Light and funny.
The pace: Zips along, at 1 hr 38 min.
What might put you off: It's in Russian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.

It's the day of radio in Russia. The radio station staff decides to invite famous bands, who will perform live for the ship with animals stranded in the Sea of Japan. And something goes wrong!
