As someone in his mid-30s now, and with no kids, a movie like Descendants 2 isn’t exactly aimed at me, now if this were a sequel to the Alexander Payne drama that might be a different story…
Barely Lethal, although hardly anything extraordinary, is at least a passable ‘tween spy thriller that’s heaps better than any of the Spy Kids movies (granted, not that big of an accomplishment). The cast is mostly good with Hailee Steinfeld doing a fine job carrying a thin script. It’s probably worth a rental, nothing more.
