Reviews
ScoobyWell Great visuals, story delivers no surprises
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
