You’ll likely enjoy this bittersweet nostalgia ride if you like uplifting yet emotional looks at growing older and fading fame; Not for you if you dislike maudlin feelings or want a purely light comedy, similar vibe to Kodachrome or Elvis & Nixon.
Pros: heartfelt nostalgia; big laughs; emotional reflection | Cons: corny midsection; some annoying characters; tough aging themes
