Reviews
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
