Why it’s a Weeknight Watch
With almost no lasting buzz and middling reviews (43% on Rotten Tomatoes), 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
- Great for anyone who wants a laugh and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Leaves you with something to think about. Sits nicely alongside Paper Moon or White Men Can't Jump.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 33 min.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG-13. Probably too much for younger kids.
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
