Kevin says IF kinda rocks!
Director John Krasinski takes a break from Jack Ryan action and quiet place monsters to make the uplifting family film IF.
The story follows a girl who has lost her mother and sees her father in the hospital. When staying with her grandmother, she encounters a group of imaginary friends whose children have all grown up. She decides to help them find new children to befriend.
Overall, the movie is sweet and has its heart firmly in the right place. It definitely plays off of Krasinski’s attitude to his “Some Good News” YouTube series he did during the pandemic.
Still, as charming as some of the elements are and as great as the supporting cast of imaginary friends are, the script could have been left in the oven a little longer. And it lays on the cheese so thick, if might have more of that in it than the upcoming Garfield movie does.
Playing out like a children’s book with a sometimes silly plot, it’s fun for the family and great for kids. Just don’t think too much about the logic behind it.
Cute but sometimes overly sweet, IF gets three insulin shots out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
