You can't wrong with this movie. It is a crowd pleaser and as part of a certain crowd, I was as well.
The film follows the old time comedies style, from Frank Capra till Charles Crichton, giving us slight deja-vu moments of "I've seen it before" without making itself boring or repetitive. And perhaps yes, we all did, or still do in some ways. And that's the good thing about the film. Although it has an universal theme the film never tries to be pretentious and fool us with surprise endings. We are dealing with a "safe-net" act, where we feel as rookie-acrobats guided by great instructors who really wants us to become part of the great show of life.
Being politically correct never felt closer to chaos in the last 10 years, I would say. And complete chaos might bring one you down to Earth with a satisfactory thought of being almost in paradise.
A must see , hear and laugh.
8.5 out of 10.
