5/10
Ruined by costume and casting choices but really not a terrible film.
6 January 2022
Although not a bad film on the whole, it reeks of clichés which are utterly off-putting. We have the multicultural cast which stands out like of a thumb of being shoe horned into the film and having just the right numbers. We then have the "girl who is a strong young woman pretending to be a boy/Asperger's/autism" role. Of course she is more intelligent than the adults in the film much like all the kids (this cliché is so old now its embarrassing.

The wardrobe department were going for a mirror of a young Spengler with the girls look but instead it just makes her look like a butch, out of places, 80s throwback.

Soundtrack wise its pretty solid but there are some choices which seem out of place. The rest of the film was very meh and for a kids film also very slow.
