About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, family-friendly time-travel comedy built on culture-clash gags and broad slapstick, especially if you liked The Visitors or Flubber; Not for you if lowbrow humor annoys you.
Pros: clean, family-friendly laughs; fish-out-of-water chaos; fast, easy watch | Cons: hit-or-miss jokes; repetitive slapstick bits; weaker than original
