This movie was about parents learning to put their child before their career, which is really a message for adults, not kids. The father seemed to be nice, but stole from his daughter and used his daughter to get ahead in his career. Another character gave Red Bull to his son to get him to come up with some good stock picks. All my kids (3,5,7,9,11) were bored and did not get what the father was doing with his daughter (he was having her imaginary friends make stock picks for him).
Awesome movie!! Our whole family enjoyed it tons - a must-see...
Eddie Murphy at his best! I also thought that the little girl did a great job acting...
This was a cute movie overall. There were a few words I wouldn't want my girls to use, but nothing too profane. The father (Eddie) had some temper tantrums that would have landed him in time out at my house, but the moral was positive. He chooses his family over work and he is rewarded for his choice.
While the message was pretty good, the plot and humor could be appreciated by those seven and older. It didn't really hold the attention of my five year old boy, but the ten year old and almost 13 seemed to like it.
Great movie about the love of a father and how important parenting is. A Relationship with your kids is so important and I think this movie sends that clear message. Again, GREAT FILM.
Yeah it's sappy, but still a pretty good show by Eddie, et al.
I saw a preview & the movie was a lot better than I thought it would be. It's a bit sappy, but there's enough physical comedy to keep the kids interested, and enough adult humor for the parents to leave their IPhones off.
My eight year old daughter and I were invited to a screening of this movie. I had some concerns with the rating being PG...but was pleasantly surprised....other than some over the top business references that kids might not understand, the use of the word "poop" repeatedly in one scene and a scene with a kid amped up on Red Bull....it was a great movie! I would go see it again. Very family friendly. Great message about how much quality time we spend with our kids.
