This show is so incredibly enjoyable & hilarious. It's the most ridiculous family drama, combined with a megalomaniac genius, and a cast of characters that are incredibly engaging.
My biggest problem with this show is that it just doesn't have enough episodes or long enough ones. I'm left wanting more. When a show does that, it's done the right job!!
No spoilers, but the show's premise is a dad & CEO of the business he owns desperately needs his son to remain centered. Rob Lowe is a fantastic comedic actor, with perfect timing, and makes it easy to get lost in this bizarre world. Rob's ACTUAL SON, in real life, is his son in the show. Such a wonderful extra layer of hunor!

This movie was incredibly painful to watch. It's like an homage to 90s buddy-cop/different-cultures action comedies, done by someone who only watched trailers.
The jokes, if you can call them that, are either lame or a dime store version of jokes done better in the 90s.
The plot & change in motivations is worse than the WORST the 90s had to offer.
The endless pandering to Hollywood's Chinese overlords was ridiculous. Can you TRY to make it part of the story???
The Jackie Chan stunts showed this man's age. Gone are the amazing body movements & acrobatic stunts. Instead, it's stilted motions and almost stop-motion.
The chemistry between the leads is forced & not believable.
I love a 90s action comedy, and I even enjoy the bad ones. This thing is almost unwatchable.

This movie had me hooked from the opening scene. The crime that occurs, the events that preceded it, the characters involved were all so masterfully well done.
Anthony Hopkims & Ryan Gosling are incredibly well-cast, and the writing is wonderful. This movie is a roller coaster of thought and suspicion and suspense, just waiting to see how it all turns out.
There is a love story sub plot that isn't great, and seems to create unnecessary tension and extra stakes that are only there to attract viewers that don't like legal dramas anyway!!!
But overall, fantastic movie. And the last half hour is splendid.
