Danny Glover and James Lafferty make a great odd couple. Funny and heart felt.

This is a surprisingly enjoyable and heartwarming movie, based on a true story which is nice, about a finance business-y guy who quit his big wig job to work at a chicken and waffle fast food joint. Lol. It's a fun movie with a little message about following your dreams in life. What more can we ask for? And the main guy James Lafferty is a super cutie so that was just fun to watch too of course, 😊 🤷‍♀️🤣 But regardless of his cutie pie-ness, its an interesting, fun, sweet movie telling an entertaining true story, very watchable. When I find myself turning off most movies and shows anymore because they're just not watchable to me, that's something.
