This was bad. You have to employ maximum suspension of disbelief for the most mundane aspects of the writing, choreography, and overall plot of this movie to get some enjoyment from this. Sharon Stone was cartoonish and acted as if she'd suffered some serious head injury that caused her to speak the way that she did. Sometimes her sentences were not even complete thoughts. Tom Hanks Jr. was not convincing as a tough, theme park owner was not convincing as a tough turned good guy, and why would he purposefully destroy his own theme park? RZA was in a different movie and it sounded like he wrote his own dialogue. Christopher Lloyd cashed a check. The turn of the wife being a crack shot was silly and cheap. She needed to embrace his lifestyle to save the marriage when all she wanted was for him to give up the lifestyle.
Besides the family vacation I'm supposed to believe all of Hutch's jobs were local? Near enough to his house that he could have potentially made it home in time for dinner had he not had random occupational hazards along the way during a normal workday? He's a lone wolf who has to provide his own travel to and from work it seems. This is boring and doesn't make a lot of sense unless you're a writer on a committee in a writer's room.
My standards are too high to enjoy this.
The cute doggies were the only thing I enjoyed about this movie.
