This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
View MoreThis movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
View MoreIt's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
View MoreLike Father could have been a great movie. It's a beautiful, heart-tugging story, and for the most part wonderfully acted, particularly by the two leads, Kristen Bell and Kelsey Grammer; but the writers opted to include a lot of gratuitous foul language, which knocked 3 stars off my rating. It seems to me that when writers stoop to using that kind of language, they are just going for shock value; it's much more of a challenge to write dialogue that grabs the viewer without the unnecessary use of profanity. (One excellent example of what I'm talking about is the movie "The Magic of Belle Isle," with Morgan Freeman.)The characters in this story are educated, civilized people. To make them sound like gutter trash is uncalled for. Come on, writers! THINK a little bit when you're writing this stuff. Be clever, not lowbrow.
View MoreIt's a fun movie. Scenarios are nice. Nice storyline with some drama about it.
View MoreLike FatherThe downside to a honeymoon on a boat is that the sex usually involves a Roman shower.Luckily, the bride in this comedy is honeymooning with her estranged father.After workaholic Rachel (Kristen Bell) is jilted at the church she drowns her misery in a booze-fuelled night out with her deadbeat dad (Kelsey Grammer), who she hasn't seen in years. Under the influence of alcohol, she decides to take her honeymoon cruise. But instead of going alone she invites her parent.After some chopping waters, the pair soon bond over karaoke. Rachel even finds a new love interest (Seth Rogan).Distributed by Netflix, this debut film from Seth Rogan's wife, Lauren Miller, is a joyless family reunion void of laughs. When it's not moonlighting as a movie-of-the-week, it's serving as a paid advertisement for Royal Caribbean Cruises.Besides, the only cruise line that really caters to incestuous marriages is Carnival.

View MoreDeep subject matter that many can relate to. Great characterization and acting. Could even say it was "cheesy" due to the comedic aspect.
