A farce and often too broad, especially in the first half. Derivative too, think Booksmart meets Sex Education meets Margaret Rutherford meets Nuns on the Run (or some unfunny sitcom from the 80s onwards). But, after almost giving up the second IS a little better.

I was really hopeful for this one but found it kind of underwhelming. I couldn’t decide if this was supposed to be entirely parody/outrageous humour or a series murder mystery. I’d have loved either separately but the mix of both together just didn’t work for me on this occasion. 

There were definitely moments that had me chuckling but also moments that I found entirely cringey or kind of boring. I found myself skimming over sections as I wanted to see how it would all pan out but I also didn’t feel very invested.
