About

If you enjoy broad time-travel comedies and culture-clash chaos in the spirit of Back to the Future or Just Visiting, this is an easy pick; Not for you if you dislike slapstick, shouting, or jokes that rely on French language and culture.

Pros: fish-out-of-water laughs; quotable, silly energy; strong lead duo | Cons: loud, frantic tone; humor may not translate; some early violence
