    Not my cup of tea in the slightest but actually was taken by surprise in a good way - watched with my cousin and auntie who absolutely loved it, so the positive vibes around maybe helped. Ariana was annoying but also likeable at the same time, hard to put a finger on it.

    Runtime: 3-5 Business Days
