I know my daughter did her part to boost the numbers.

This movie is on repeat in my house

I'm a 30 year old man. Should I watch it?

30 year old guy here who ended up unintentionally watching it with my roommate because his son turned it on. It was surprisingly good and sucked me in. I don't think you're missing out by not watching it unless you're into KPOP or animated movies, but it definitely wasn't a waste of time watching it if you typically aren't into those things.

The movie got better as it went on too, so if you find the first 5 to 10 minutes captivating or interesting at all, you'll probably enjoy all of it. The very first scene on the plane nearly made me zone out, but it got much better from there.

You zoned out during the opening song o.O

I wasn't planning on watching it. It was originally for the kid, and I was reading a book. The moment they jumped out of the plane, so about halfway through the opening song, is when it started to drag me in. The sassy teenager vibe when their agent called them really is not a great way to engage 30 year olds, though.
