I've long bristled at any movie that's like "crazy/wild/unpredictable/irresonsponsible adult changes all their ways because of the love and affection of a child" because I feel like we mythologize parenthood and parenting to a dangerous extent.
BUT! I do remember deciding to see this eventually anyway (it was so long ago I'm sure I'll never know why) and I remember being pleasantly surprised by it, which says something good, I think? :)
I'm due for a rewatch of this one but I just don't know if i can muster the energy. Both in terms of marketing and cinematic quality it felt like something I watched when it came out because I was trying to watch everything that came out. Admittedly I am rather male but also agree that its RT score is too low and its LB score is too high.

Definitely! I think this one isn’t as prescriptive as Ray’s love is so hard won.

Yeah, like, it definitely has its moments but a 3.9 is wild 😛
