Brought to you by Eddie Murphy, actor of great comedys and action films including the nutty professor, 48 hours and many more great classics.
The story Eddie Murphy is just a typical dad which starts off looking for a day care centre for his son to go to while him, and his wife are both at work. There is only one place..... a day care centre which is more of a boarding school, just as Eddie Murphy and his co-worker lose there jobs, this leads Eddie Murphy in financial trouble so he ends up looking after his son while his wife continues to work, one day while Eddie Murphy and his co-worker friend take there children to a park, he gets the great idea to start a day care centre.
So they do it, Eddie Murphy and his co-worker (Jeff Garlin) start a day care centre at Eddie Murphys home. While Eddie Murphy was starting to succeed, the good old boarding school day care centre started trouble, but Eddie doesn't stop, and keeps his head up high, while having fun as he goes alone, and eventually they become the best day care centre in the area. They ended up expanding there home based day care centre to a large building, to enable them to take on the children which use to go to the boarding school day care centre.
Advantages Daddy day care is just another time for Eddie Murphy to shine, this DVD includes very funny scenes, to suit the whole family. the file also includes 3 set top games, kid card match up, name the noise maker, and odd one out, personally I haven't played the games, but any free games included on a great DVD is a plus. One of the main extras of the DVD I would say is the blooper reel, which shows you even more funny clips of this classic.
Disadvantages like all of Eddie Murphy films, they are simply not long enough! And the same with this one, I think they could have included a bit more to the storyline.
Favorite parts My favorite part has to be when Eddie Murphys son has a bad nightmare and instead of wanting his mum, he wants his dad. This shocked me, and showed that even men can look after children. Another of my favorites is when one of the children which they looked after wouldn't go into the home, the only way was for Jeff Garlin to give the child money!! This continues through the film and Jeff ends up losing more and more of his money!
Overall Out of 10, this has to be a 9 it's a great family, comedy which will get anyone laughing, it also includes a lot of features and extras on the DVD to keep you busy for a while.
