My boys 11 & 13 watched this, they enjoyed it but didn't love it. My older son felt it should have had a higher rating.

Didn't even watch as there was a lot of bad language in the first few minutes. Disappointing.

John Candy plays a great role in this film. Good fun for the whole family albeit a little too close to home for some.
