Review by PETER FOLDY

June 29, 2019

What I liked

James Everts as “Kevin” commands the stage. Jordan Mitchell-Love, is full of charm as the robot, “Oscar.” Josh Hillinger is great in the role of “Gordo.” Allie Costa is sweet as Kevin’s love interest, “Margaret.” Other standouts include Frankie Zabilka, Clint Blakely and Adam Foster Ballard, but truthfully, the entire cast give it their all and it is their commitment and enthusiasm that ultimately saves the day.

What I didn't like

The music.

My overall impression

An energetic and talented cast can’t overcome the uninspired, pedestrian score that diminishes the potential of this charming little tale that feels like a modern-day homage to the 198o film, “My Bodyguard.”
