Daniel F Great family flick from the 90s. Love the story, message and just the general feel of this film. Still watch it sometimes to bring back some good memories. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/13/25 Full Review Ed R Very cheesy Disney nostalgic movie. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Dale R Jonathan Taylor Thomas plays a young man trying to get rid of his mother’s (Farrah Fawcett) new boyfriend (Chevy Chase). Chevy Chase is best known for his physical humor, however, this film does not give him many chances to show that off. JTT for his part did a great job here. The writing, especially for Farrah Fawcett’s character, did not work for me. Also, the third act ended up having a more cartoonish tone than the rest of the movie and that was a bit jarring. If you really enjoy Chevy Chase or Jonathan Taylor Thomas this movie might interest you, otherwise skip it. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/15/24 Full Review Michael W This Disney movie was alright. Chevy Chase, Farrah Fawcett, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, George Wendt, and the rest of the cast did a decent job in this movie. The story of the movie was kind of entertaining and humorous. It's about protecting your family from pain and getting to know the new members of your family. If you haven't seen this movie yet, you may not enjoy it. I didn't like this movie very much. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/30/23 Full Review Michael M This is probably one of the very few roles where Chevy Chase plays a Vulnerable Character. Who's trying to a good stepfather to a kid who wants him gone. It's a good family flick. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/12/22 Full Review Audience Member At some point, Jonathan Taylor Thomas was a thing. So was Chevy Chase. And I guess so was Farrah Fawcett. So imagine all of them in a movie where JTT wants his mom to never marry again and Chevy wants to be the man that breaks that cycle of her never finding the right stepfather for her son and you have Man of the House. Becca loves this movie and asks to watch it frequently, which I figure has to do with the fact that we have a major age gap. Yet I watch it with her and enjoy how much she enjoys it. The battles between would-be father and son continue as they both join the Minotauk Indian Guides led by Chet Bronski (George Wendt). And oh yeah — a mobster and his son that Chevy's character sent to prison both want revenge. Somehow, Disney made this movie without cleaing C+C Music Factory's "Gonna Make You Sweat" and Enigma's "Return to Innocence" for the soundtrack. I have no idea how that happens. Director James Orr also made They Call Me Bruce, a movie that Becca woudl absolutely refuse to watch with me, as well as Mr. Destiny, a movie that she has also watch in the multiple dozens of times. Orr also dated Fawcett until he was convicted of misdemeanor battery after attacking her for allegedly refusing his marriage proposal.
