About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, surreal road-trip comedy that’s more about quirky moments than a tight plot; Not for you if you need consistent laughs or a focused story like Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers.

Pros: gentle wackiness; nostalgic charm; a few big laughs | Cons: aimless story; uneven jokes; disjointed scenes
