About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, heartfelt time-travel adventure with lots of banter and emotional beats; Not for you if you want serious sci-fi puzzle-solving or if you dislike Ryan Reynolds-style humor like Free Guy or Men in Black 3.
Pros: heartfelt family story; fast sci-fi fun; strong lead chemistry | Cons: some rushed lore; villains feel weak; jokes can miss
