About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an easy, heartwarming road-trip comedy about family push-and-pull, with more sweetness than edge; Not for you if you expect big, crude laughs or fast pacing like Orange County.

Pros: warm mother-son chemistry; gentle laughs; sweet, relatable moments | Cons: slow stretches; jokes feel familiar; can be boring
