One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
