This is a road movie for the whole family. Even though elements of the plot may be too difficult for younger kids to understand, they will be charmed by Jennifer Love Hewitt and the jovial Howard Hesseman, who gradually becomes the 'good guy'. Unfortunately, some kids might be confused as to why the police are chasing the duo, and are seemingly the 'bad guys', since the whole idea of fraudulent adopted parents will be complex for them. Older kids and adults will appreciate the theme of families, and that money can't buy happiness. Hewitt, in a more child-like phase before her move up to horror ('I Know What You Did Last Summer') and teen romance comedy ('Can't Hardly Wait'), is good to watch, as is the whole film, which is rollicking good fun with characters you can cheer on. 8 out of 10.
