People who talked about this film are largely split, but the negativity tends to be loud. The story of a boy and his mom's cross-country flight is seen as sweet but deeply unoriginal, and the pacing gets called out as sluggish. The bright spots are the visuals, which many found charmingly retro, and the light humor. Almost everyone mentioned John Travolta's role as director, though reactions to his involvement were mixed.
