Chucklesome thrills as kids rescue their mum

Imagine discovering that your typical suburban mother once led a secret life as a thief and has been in witness protection since before you were born. That, in a nutshell, is how The Sleepover, a knockabout family comedy clearly inspired by the Spy Kids franchise, begins. That should be more than enough for any youngster to get to grips with, but when Mum and her hapless husband are kidnapped, it’s up to her plucky offspring to find her. Sadie Stanley and Maxwell Simkins play the youngsters, alongside Malin Akerman, Ken Marino and Joe Manganiello. Netflix, from Friday
