It is surprising that this movie got made and that such talent decided to support it. The plot and timeline are convoluted and contrived. The usual fare of pratfalls and visual humor were lame. Most concerning was the portrayal of women. The love interest is repeatedly claimed as "mine" by the villain. In many scenes, the women are unnecessarily scantily clad and frequently objectified. There was nothing new here- typical circus jokes, lame plot, and problematic stereotypes typical of a movie that is 50 years older than this. After 20 or 30 minutes that offered only cringes and no smiles, we had to find something else.
