Says a lot about a movie that I apparently saw this before (rating both on Letterboxd and IMDb) yet remember almost nothing about. Yet, probably give it the same rating. Good ensemble cast and fine performances, especially from Danny DeVito (who executive produced), but not the strongest writing and pacing felt a bit off. Still, found some of engaging enough to make it a so-so movie as a whole. **2.75/5**
