Margot H I enjoyed this. It is a soft comedy with a few high points. Good for summer evenings when you want a light laugh and not too much drama. Enjoyed the "nude" woodland chase! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/13/23 Full Review Audience Member It started out slow, but it was worth it once it picked up and the action really started. Then it started getting pretty funny. However, in the end it's mainly your typical Canadian comedy. The storyline really needed to be more thought out, the actors needed a better comedic timing pretty often, and the police chief put absolutely no effort into his character at all. It's worth seeing, if only once. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
