Maybe "heartfelt"? Another idea may be to look at comps for your film and how they are categorized/described.

That's a good one! I looked at Psych, Only Murders in the Building, even Manhattan Murder Mystery. They're all 'comedy-drama'.

I'd never heard of that film, but it sounds great! I love that! A former kid detective, now 32, solving mysteries between hangovers. That sounds hysterical!

It’s a great movie with some comedy; It got very good scores on Rotten Tomatoes (85% and 77%), but the ending is odd.

I love how they got past the limitations of picking one genre by making 'MysteryWhodunnitComedyCrimeDramaMystery' all one word. I have wondered if I could get away with 'Detective' as a genre? 🤔

A murder mystery is a great way to describe it if it doesn't follow the detective trope.
