Powerful
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
