The new BET-backed movie starring Ayaamii Sledge, Nicole Richie, and June Squibb lands a few good jokes but still doesn’t add up to anything good.
When four siblings conspire to surreptitiously dispose of a dead body, tweenage Melissa raises an important point about their caution levels: “It’s not 1991—there are cameras everywhere!” Why is her frame of reference 33 years ago, at least two decades before her birth? The same two reasons these kids are looking into body disposal in the first place: This is a remake of the 1991 movieThat is, the movie’s story remains nonsensical; redoing it in the first place isn’t so crazy, at least if...
Tanya and her siblings—stoner Kenny , gamer and consumer of “dark media” Melissa, and sweet oddball Zack —are then faced with a monstrous babysitter , who subsequently dies—not at Melissa’s hands, despite her facility for covering up a crime scene. Wanting neither to bother their mom nor to secure a replacement, the kids decide to get rid of the body and try to look after themselves for the summer.
That would probably be a stretch, given the unevenness and the story prone to explain-aways. Still, Jones and her on-screen sibs are a likable and confident gaggle of young performers, Richie evidently remains in her goofy mood from the wonderful short-lived sitcomhas honored its source material in the most fitting way possible: By making a movie that’s not very good but destined to be enjoyed anyway.
