Ranking August 2018's Movies From Worst To Best

Rotten Tomatoes Score: 49% (5.2/10)

Box Office: Straight to Netflix.

Verdict: The directorial debut of Seth Rogen's wife Lauren Miller Rogen is a fitfully enjoyable family dramedy that benefits immensely from the charming presence of Kristen Bell, Kelsey Grammer and Rogen himself, even if it's ultimately a bit over-familiar and cliched.

Still, for the standards of recent additions to the Netflix Originals lineup, it's really not bad at all. A gentle, sentimental sit for when you want something undemanding to watch on a lazy, possibly hungover Sunday afternoon.

You won't remember it for long, but it delivers the basic goods.
