The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
