Disappointing, Cute, Overrated, Good for all ages, Trite

See it if you're looking for something light & fluffy, or maybe you're looking for a show for your community theater to stage.

Don't see it if you want a substantial piece of theater. It was a little too trivial for my tastes. And the humor was too corny & cute. Weak score too.
