d m #NotRecommended 5/10 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/12/24 Full Review Kyle M Instead of fulfilling its premise, it signifies a directional angle to the affected tradition that only led to the usual formula being genuinely coerced across its associated genres than picking up where potential ideas been seeded, albeit the decency to make room for general appeals from laughable comedy to sweet gestures still adjacent beneath the other. (B-) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/24 Full Review donnie m the acting and so called comedy of the Mexican dad is SO overacted it's not funny-i had to change the channel Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/15/23 Full Review StephenPaul C LOL, the funniest 01 hour: and 41 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/14/23 Full Review Audience Member How? Just how? This movie was nothing more than an easy paycheck for some likeable people. Absolutely nothing worked here. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Would not recommend. I never got into the storyline and very few jokes were funny. It all felt very contrived and so predictable, but not in an enjoyable way. In your average cheesy rom com, you're still happy about the ending because you get somewhat invested in the main characters; this film has so many people and relationships and dynamics and cliches that nothing gets explored on a deeper level. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
