Weeknight Watchearly ratingWhy it’s a Weeknight Watch
With a box office flop and 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
- Tailor-made for fans of a well-timed joke and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Low effort, high reward: just press play. Same wavelength as The Way Way Back.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 38 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
Revolves around Castro, who was once a very famous TV host, but as he grows old, his popularity is dwindling.
