I loved this movie. If you like Travolta, you will love it too. It was entertaining.


Travolta was just hysterical and good in this one. I haven’t seen him in anything this good since Gotti. His acting just keeps improving and was on point with autism. I think this movie wasn’t meant to be taken serious, and at the same time the tone was not comedic either which stroke the right balance for me there. Though, I’m sure that some people who couldn’t get it for what it was worth were or will be offended by the portrayal of the autism.
I think it’s just popular to jump on the hate bandwagon these days. I don’t think it was even advertised anywhere or shown in theaters, so for the most part it’s gone unnoticed undeservingly. Maybe it will gain a cult following some day.
