Best movie of this year hands down!
It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
View MoreThe storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
View MoreThis is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
View MoreDaddy Day Camp is just simple family friendly entertainment. Cuba Gooding Jr. actually did pretty well despite what some critics might say about his performance. The plot was pretty basic, nothing too deep or articulate, but the plot didn't need to be, it's supposed to be simple and fun. I watched this film one night with my grandparents, and we all liked it OK, it wasn't great, but it certainly wasn't terrible. It did have some gross out moments that I didn't care for, but there were also some nice heart warming moments to enjoy as well. Cuba's dad in this movie was my favorite part of the whole film, that was a really good character, and he had some good scenes. Bottom line is that this is a movie that is safe for all families to sit and watch on family movie night, it might not win any Oscars, but it's enjoyable enough. 6/10.
View MoreRemember my Son of the Mask review where I complain about Jim Carrey not being in a sequel so bad it has nothing to hide? Well, this movie is suffering the same problem Son of the Mask has: no Eddie Murphy!! Instead, we get some dope named Cuba Gooding Jr.(Not that Cuba Gooding Jr. is a good actor, mind you). The plot has made positively no sense by any means and all the characters look absolutely nothing like the originals from Daddy Day Care. I know what you're thinking: well, at least the guy who voiced the Flying Dutchman from Spongebob Squarepants is in it so it can't be that bad. Why mention an already horrendous cartoon series in a bad, crap-filled movie like this? And to think Fred Savage's performance in the Wizard is a complete joke. This is, above all, one of the most stupidest movies since Titanic: The Legend Goes On and A Troll in Central Park!
View MoreI was really excited for kamp today, they told me it was for the best, and i believed them. There we were, at the large iron gate to daddy day camp. My brother, Hertzel, was immediately taken from the line to be put with the other larger men for hard labor. i myself was subject to the much crueler treatment of being tortured for the knowledge of the wherebouts of others like me. The fat man who replaced Jeff Garlin from the original movie starred down at me during snack time, his hungry eyes giving off an intensity that would send shivers down my spine. after we were allowed to return to out shacks, he pulled me aside and forced me into his home. he then proceeded to rape me at gunpoint. I can still remember him yelling "imma put some extra mayo on this kosher jew-burger". He then began to beat me about the head, and i blacked out. Then my mom came to pick me up and we had muffins. Then i went home to my doggie sparky and we played catch. it was the best day ever.
View MoreOK - it's a bad movie. No argument about that. The story had some potential mind you - the guys from "Daddy Day Care" branching out into running a day camp - but it was poorly put together, had absolutely no flow (especially for the first half hour or so) and featured a type of humour that might be best described as juvenile (except that might be insulting to juveniles, so let's call it pre-juvenile) with jokes that revolved largely around burping and farting and various and sundry other bodily functions. It also featured a lame competition between Camp Driftwood (the Daddy Camp) and a rival camp run by an obnoxious (so obnoxious in fact as to be totally unbelievable) director, played rather pathetically by Lochlyn Munro. I knew this would be slagged pretty hard because of virtually all the main characters from "Daddy Day Care" being recast, but - not having seen the original - I'm in a position to look at Cuba Gooding Jr.'s performance without the face of Eddie Murphy looking over my shoulder. In all fairness, Gooding wasn't bad as Charlie Hinton - he just got suckered into starring in a really bad movie. Having said all that, this movie doesn't really deserve to be ranked in the worst 100 films OF ALL TIME. There are a lot of movies worse than this (one scene actually made me smile, and I've sat through a lot of "comedies" that didn't even get that much response.) So, it's not one of the worst 100, but it is pretty bad. 1/10
