Our take
72 HOURS is a Netflix comedy about a 40-year-old ad exec crashing a twentysomething Miami bachelor party. Dialogue includes constant profanity, heavy drinking, prostitution-area jokes, and racist banter played for laughs. Treat it like R-lite adult comedy, not for kids
Uplifting themes
Unlikely friendship across age gaps emerges from the party disaster
Story (may spoil tone)
To save his career, a 40-year-old ad exec joins a crew of twentysomethings for a wild Miami bachelor party after they mistakenly add him to a group chat.
