How in the sam scratch did this manage to keep a PG13 rating?! Maybe the studio managed to talk the MPAA into it so more people would come see it if they knew there was this much skin on display, ‘cause it sure wasn’t going to be the plot! (Not the worst, but there are definitely a bunch of “because the plot needs it to be” moments.)
