Lengies and Hutch in Toyland
Really liked the story ... downgrading stars due to technical
As others have noted, some of the speech in this film is REALLY fast. There were lines neither my wife nor I could understand even by replaying them.
It made me wonder if they ran long, and rather than cutting a scene, they time compressed all or part of it. I've never heard so much rapid speech, and from multiple roles.
Back to the movie. It's a common trope. Large corporation decides to cut brick and mortars, and it's up to our intrepid data analyst to save the day by discovering why one particular store still shows a profit.
The writers have a few ideas for that. I'm not so sure those things work in real life rather than scriptwriter idea-land, but they make for a charming story either way.
It's a recommended watch but I doubt we'll subject ourselves to the machine gun dialogue again.
