Has the look and feel of an extended sitcom episode.

While never truly funny or insightful, the movie works intermittently by digging a little deeper than you might expect.

rotten:
I'd rather see a whole movie about an aging B-movie actor and forget about all the stuff with Tim Allen.

The movie makes smart use of the small-screen big-charm appeal of former Home Improvement star Tim Allen.
