My review · Reviewed 03/07/2026
At this point in my movie reviewing "career", I have reviewed almost two thousand titles. Of all of the movies that I have watched in that time, I don't know if I had the sheets pulled over my head like I did with this movie. This movie was an absolute slog until the last 3 minutes, and then it became brilliant. I probably laughed for five minutes, and much to my disbelief, it made the previous 90 minutes worth it.
