Viewing Notes

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen this one. It’s got that 1980’s Spielberg-influenced feel about it.  It’s mostly comedic and cartoonish (even Chuck Jones makes a cameo). Fun to see BREAKING BAD’s Jonathan Banks as a doofus cop, and also good to see the lovely Phoebe Cates again.
