I gave up on this. I think it suffers from the problem a lot of Netflix TV movies have and that is a lack of script development. There were good ideas but they weren't realised very well. A bit more script editing and even improvisation maybe could have helped. Every gag seemed telegraphed and not particularly funny. And you've got some comedy royalty there - Eddie Murphy had a role that could have been ten times funnier, but he was sort of set up as a straight man. Maybe it got better later, but I gave up after the woeful basketball sequence when the editors worked overtime to make a fumbling bumbler like Jonah Hill look like an oncourt superstar. Pretty two dimensional all round.
