A precocious kid and a police officer join forces to catch a criminal at large. A bit shocked to watch a great actor such as Lou Diamonds Phillips in this kind of movie. <br/><br/>To my taste it i a 4/10, I have seen much better family movies but from this point of view I would give a 5/10.<br/><br/>It is OK overall. The drones are quite good and give an edge to the film.<br/><br/>Lovely relationship between the two protagonists. I found this movie in Redbox and although it's not going to win any awards, I thought it was light fun and a movie that the whole family could enjoy. <br/><br/>Lou Diamond Phillips and Lulu Wilson are excellent in the lead roles here. Phillips portrays the veteran Detective Simmons, who doesn't have much use for the latest technologies. He'll get some help from the tech savvy 12-year-old Karina Foley whose late father was a policeman and it's a job she wants to eventually hold. By circumstance, they'll work together on a case where someone is pulling pranks at one municipal venue after another, threatening the town's popular annual festival. The quirky characters in the supporting cast add well to mix here also.<br/><br/>All in all, this comedy is a diversion from heavy dramas or action flicks, and surprisingly I found myself laughing quite a lot and enjoying the movie.
