Matt Roush says...
Not to be confused with Barbara Eden’s I Dream of Jeannie, Melissa McCarthy’s take on a magical being is much funkier when a genie named Flora is unleashed by the very needy Bernard (Paapa Essiedu) in a comedy film from Richard Curtis (Love Actually). Bernard could use Flora’s help—as she puts it, “Real genie, unlimited wishes”—after losing his job and the support of his wife (Denée Benton) and young daughter (Jordyn McIntosh), whose birthday he forgot just before Christmas. Can Flora help him get his family back? What do you think?
