Advantages: A clean kiddies film
Disadvantages: A bit boring

Mirroring Nar words of wisdom... Hello and welcome to the review that should have been here. It was here but its not here now as I have taken it and put it into my private stash somewhere else. It may well appear somewhere else online and if it does it will have my name on it. Thank you to everyone, to all the people in my COT over the years who have stuck by me and who have been great influences over the reviews I have written. It is indeed a ... Read review

Advantages: An amusing afternoon
Disadvantages: Not the best murphy film ever

...own, telling clearly that his daddy has no clue how to deal with children, is worth a visit to the cinema. The film brings a good laugh for everyone in the cinema – adult or still a child. Of course you can’t expect anything highly demanding. It’s just a film for the complete family, just for relaxing and having fun. A few words about the actors: I wasn’t too impressed with Anjelica Huston as the noble kindergarten owner. The role was obviously ... Read review

Advantages: Good clean family fun that appeals to both children and adults
Disadvantages: A few dragged out scenes

Anyone, who has kids or experience of them, will be rolling in the aisles at this film. I believe it to be the best family film, I have ever watched and being a mother of a young son, believe me I have watched quite a few in my time. The film is based around a very real issue that of finding reliable, safe and affordable childcare, which any parent these days will tell you is an ordeal. STORYLINE *********** Eddie Murphy (Charlie) and ... Read review

Advantages: Funny
Disadvantages: Not Eddie Murphy's greatest movies

I recently visited my local multiplex excited with the thought of seeing a good Eddie Murphy film after a lot of howlers from him recently. Daddy Day Care is about two fathers who have been laid off from their jobs and decide to start a childcare centre in Murphy's front room. They come up with this idea as the only other 'Nursury' in the area is run by a Cruella DeVille type woman and involves the children learning latin and politics etc. So they ... Read review

Advantages: Keeps the kids quiet for a few hours

...yet another light-weight family comedy. In Daddy Day Care, Murphy and Jeff Garlin play Charlie and Phil, two surburban dads who decide to set up their own child day care centre, after losing their high-flying jobs in advertising.

Advantages: A great film all the family will enjoy together
Disadvantages: It gives the impression that men arnt able to look after kidsn, but that does change

Well I have to say that I am a little biased with the fact I dont think I have found an Eddie Murphy film that I did not enjoy. This is a perfect movie for the entire family no matter what the age. I sat and watched this with my partner and we both really enjoyed it. The basic storyline is that two work obsessed fathers loose there job, and are left at home with there kids. Being business men, they see an opportunity to make money by opening a day ... Read review

Advantages: an all round family film with good humour
Disadvantages: the scenes went on a bit too long

...a good idea which is daddy daycare. At first when there is a sign up no-one will trust them with there kids as they are men. When one mum trusted them though the offers came flooding in. The two men do not know how 2 look after the kids at first but they soon get the hang of it. I would seriously reccommend watching this film and i have watched it several times and i still find it very funny ... Read review

Advantages: make you happy...well ... maybe!
Disadvantages: nothing new

Well….. its Eddie Murphy again!! but first about the film's poster! When I first saw the poster of this film in a bus stop I didn’t like it, that’s the poster not the film!! The Idea of putting Flash (that’s the boy in red dress) over Eddie in that way was a very bad idea. Why?? Because it have some racial meanings, to put a white boy over the back of a black man with the boy acting like a winner was not a good idea at all, even though I know and ... Read review
