About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, slightly edgy 1980s comedy with a mismatched group causing chaos while trying to do the right thing, in the vein of Throw Momma from the Train; Not for you if you want grounded drama or consistent laughs.
Pros: strong ensemble chemistry; lots of quotable laughs; breezy, easy watch | Cons: uneven humor; thin, predictable plot; thriller subplot drags
