Highly Overrated But Still Good
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
