"Better than expected! Funny with surprisingly emotional themes. This could've gone to an even darker place and been half as funny as it is, so I'm glad there's a happy ending and that Shakes actually gets to grow as a character and recover from his alcoholism.
I also couldn't have ever predicted that Adam Sandler, Tom Kenny, and Robin Williams would be in this film. The mime class scene is hysterical."
