You can pretty much say that this is a terrible movie. And I actually kind of blame myself for that. Because no one would ever suggest that having JLo in it is a guarantee of quality cinematography. But you know, it's not good to be prejudiced. So I gave it a shot. And if it weren't for the craziest "plot twist" they came up with for basically no reason at all about halfway through the film, I probably would have said it was good. This way, though, I wonder if an 8-year-old kid accidentally got his hands on the script. Otherwise, this "idea" is an unfathomable mystery to me. 1.5 stars

Easygoing relaxation that fulfills its purpose, if you expect nothing else from it. There could have been fewer slapstick jokes, preferably only one would have been enough. Unfortunately, the lesson the filmmakers are trying to teach is based on lies, which makes it meaningless. Although the current globalized world has long since ceased to operate on the principle of truth. Who today believes that the truth triumphs? And we behave accordingly. (40%)
