What to Know

Critics Consensus

It isn't clear who is most culpable for this creepy comedy's sheer wrongness, but its smarmy laughs and uncomfortable romance will leave audiences feeling guilty long afterward.

Steve R The reviews remind me how puritanical we’ve become as a society. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/07/25 Full Review Heywood J Worst music I’ve ever heard in a movie. Absolutely bizarre how the director needed to have a huge tropical bird in almost every shot. All round terrible movie. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/25 Full Review
