- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for anyone who loves watching a plan come together and fans of a well-timed joke. Half the pleasure is trying to spot the trick before the reveal. Same wavelength as My Own Private Idaho or Raising Arizona.
- The mood
- Funny with heart, feel-good.
- The pace
- Bright and bouncy, at 3 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
Two love-struck gangsters escape with one million dollars in a bag and some serious trust issues. A road trip starts.
