I love this movie so much
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
