About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a breezy, odd-couple rom-com with a “stuck overnight” setup and a few memorable moments; Not for you if you need tight plotting or consistent laughs like Home Alone.
Pros: fun store-night fantasy; a few standout set pieces; light early-90s vibe | Cons: thin story and depth; uneven tone shifts; weak chemistry for some
