The movie has an abundance of comic moments, particularly a video scene of William in better days played out to a background of James Bond music amid the witty comments of two of William\u2019s former pals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rated PG-13.\u00a0 110 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Story \u2013 B-<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Acting \u2013 B<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Technical \u2013 B<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Overall &#8211; B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/mnu.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/mnu.png\" alt=\"mnu\" width=\"600\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-160596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/mnu.png 1142w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/mnu-300x252.png 300w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/mnu-1024x860.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1142px) 100vw, 1142px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ME BEFORE YOU Warner Bros.
