Un papa hors pair

When my wife and I saw the trailer, we figured it could be really good or just alright (most trailers these days show the best parts because the movie sucks). Kevin hart was superb in this one, starting from the Gut Punch you get right off the bat, up to the ending. The trials, tribulations and doubts he goes through as a working single parent are easily identifiable by countless single parents throughout the world. This movie will make you laugh, cry and appreciate the efforts of parenting, share in the grief of loss and identify with his frustrations of self-doubt. In the end, this movie was really great. I am only giving it 8/10 because, aside from Marian and Maddie, the balance of supporting cast was just average. Definitely worthy of watching at least once!

This was a sweet and cute movie/story. It definitely brought a lot of ups and downs throughout. It really didn't capture my attention the entire time but it was good for what it is.

Never thought this man could be as good an emotional actor as he is a comedian. The story is simple, beautiful and very relatable for most. Hardships faced by a young single parent to raise a child not as an infant but also as a pre-teen which can be very tough. Tough how, balancing your life all around your child to give them a healthy surrounding with no one else to rely on. You don't wanna miss your golden years but at the same time you don't want to ruin your kid's life by giving no attention.

Hart played the role very well, according to his capacity and the demand of the story. Some greag actors are in it, often forgotten but always a delight to see. A good family-friendly movie to watch this Father's Day, cheers!

Harts acting was great in this. He really showed off his acting skills in the more depressing parts of the film. Predictable plot but the movie is feel good and has lots of emotions.

Mad props to Hart for showing his real acting chops, and breaking his typecasting comedic-only roles.

As far as this film goes, it really wasn't anything new or extraordinary. It was 100% predictable, and filled with every possible cliche for it's genre. Writer and director Paul Weitz left our imagination starving with his formulaic and sappy slow paced screenplay, that felt much longer than its 109 min runtime. It also felt that Weitz intentionally left out many missed opportunities for laughter, just to keep Hart in character, which made the story that much more bland.

The only thing you'll remember down the road, is that "Kevin Hart can be a serious actor, like he was in that movie.... what was it called again?"
