About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a campy, brightly 80s sci‑fi rom-com with silly humor and occasional songs; Not for you if you dislike musicals, low-stakes plots, or broad comedy like Absolute Beginners.

Pros: colorful 80s energy; goofy laugh-out-loud bits; catchy musical highlights | Cons: thin story; uneven pacing; songs not for everyone
