Bland and unevenly paced, with just a few touching scenes. Yara Shahidi just could not save this movie, despite being one of the cutest kids ever. I blame the director and editor for failing to tighten up those magical kid moments, but the truth is that Eddie Murphy should have been the one carrying the film. And I haven't enjoyed any of his performances since Coming to America two decades ago. And watching Thomas Haden Church pretend to be a Native American was just painful... scene, after scene, after scene.
