The imaginative movie “IF” misses the mark with Rachel Wagner

Today, we deep dive into the imaginative world of Imaginary Friends in the movie “IF.” One of the most anticipated (and advertised) movies of the summer. And while we had big expectations for this family film, our guest reviewer, Rachel Wagner, said it best in her review “‘IF’ Oddly Lacks Imagination, And I Promise I’m A Nice Person.” She is joined by producer KellieAnn to break down the rights and wrongs of the ‘mostly enjoyable’ film.
