Went in cold and came out completely won over.

The writing in the first half was sharper than most recent releases.

Rewatched this after the initial theatrical run and it holds up even better on a second viewing. Details in the background that I missed the first time around add so much to the world-building. The lead pair have genuine chemistry, which honestly saves a script that's fairly thin on plot. Comedy track involving the extended family is hit or miss — mostly hit, occasionally overstretched. Cinematography leans heavily on wide establishing shots that slow the pace but look gorgeous. By the end I wasn't thinking about the plot holes anymore, just enjoying the ride. Not a perfect film but a genuinely fun one.

Went in with zero expectations and came out pleasantly surprised. This is exactly the kind of mid-budget entertainer that doesn't get enough credit. No big stunts, no over-the-top drama — just a tightly written family story that earns its emotional beats. The music director deserves special mention, the background score never overstays its welcome. A couple of side characters felt underused, which is a shame given how well they were introduced. The climax wraps things up a little too neatly, but by then you're invested enough not to mind. Definitely one I'd recommend to anyone tired of formulaic mass entertainers.
