3.5
A good time. I flew through the first half and had a great time with it but the second half felt too shallow. Jack decided that he was staying in Ben's house and not buying his dream house and Ben decided that they were staying in their parents house and nobody really got what they wanted and yet everybody was apparently happy with it?? It made it feel really rushed and shallow because we never actually got them thinking these things through or discussing how they felt about these decisions and instead they just happened and we move on very quickly.
I really like how Ben and Milo interact because it feels very much like a brother relationship. Like that Ben is really insecure in his ability to be a parent. He doesn't need Jack but he wants him in their lives. I'm also a fan of Jack's stability and how he wants to support Ben and Milo instead of coming and taking over.
