Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

It made about 20 times its budget, but middling reviews (35% on Rotten Tomatoes) 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.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it

What might put you off
