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.

Desperate, broke, and out of ideas, four college seniors start a fake Christian charity to embezzle money for tuition.
