Blu B It's barely 90 minutes but it feels like it hits it's climax at a little before the hour mark and it just drags with pointless dumb antics. Editing and pacing aren't good and everything else is ok. Spade is alright and everyone else has energy and some chemistry but the gags are too inconsistent. Some are funny, and clever with occasional good dialouge, and than most of the time it's so flat and dumb. It's harmless stuff though. It reminds of something like Sullivan's Travels if you removed the underlying social commentary and messaging. You'd get something like this. Once he arrives at the new family stuff just happens. Pointless stuff and subplots that go nowhere. The music also is just generic stuff or 70's tracks which don't fit despite being catchy. Skip This. I can see this kind of working if it was more consistent with humor and a much sharper script. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/19/25 Full Review Kevin P An amusing crazy premise that’s a pure time capsule of raunchy early 2000’s comedies with all the good and bad that comes with it. The slapstick is weak, but the witty banter is better than I expected and there’s a decent character arc about post child stardom despite its cliché storytelling conventions of the era that had already been done to death by then. The chemistry between David Spade and the family is also better than I was anticipating. It’s some dumb fun and a new guilty pleasure of mine if you know what you’re in for.

Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/03/25 Full Review Ed R Rough comedy to watch. Not the worst movie to watch but they tried to a force a good story. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/07/24 Full Review Ivan Z This is the worst film I've ever seen. It's cringe and seriously not funny. Also what's a man doing hanging out with a little girl and a boy? That was just weird. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/24 Full Review Abel It's been a few years and not a day goes by that I don't think about what an absolutely horrible movie this was in every conceivable way. There are bad fun movies to watch and I've watched a few. This movie will have you questioning how could a movie of this caliber exist beyond Jack and Jill? They don't make movies like this anymore and you'll be happy they don't. If my parents are ever disappointed in me, I'll show them this movie and they'll probably be glad I will never achieve such high levels of disappointment this movie brings to the table. I'm so angry still. I might just hate watch it to ruin another one of my family or friends day. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews
