The result is a goofy, and surprisingly heartfelt, ode to old Hollywood, with tons of references and in-jokes that will go over the heads of not only kids, but a lot of adults, too.

The focus, as expected, is on warmed-over wisecracks and lots of chaotic action where you can’t really see what’s going on.

It is a decently made version of the same story that has already been made hundreds of times. Just because it is based on a true story doesn’t mean it isn’t also extremely derivative.

It is still likable, there are some inspired ideas and funny scenes. If the magic is gone, well, the series already had the best possible ending sixteen years ago.
