Meu Pai Herói

All "Andre" (Gerard Depardieu) wants is to spend some quality time with his 14-year-old daughter "Nicole" (Katherine Heigl). So, he takes her to Jamaica for a nice vacation. However, when she gets there, she happens to fall in love with a young man named "Ben" (Dalton James) and, in order to impress him, says that she is actually 18--and that Andre is her lover who rescued her from a life of crime and drugs. One thing leads to another and soon the entire resort is under the impression that Andre is a child molester and treat his friendly gestures with complete disdain. Meanwhile, Nicole discovers that, in order to continue the ruse, she has to continue stretching the truth even more out-of-balance than ever before. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that, in spite of the risqué subject matter, this turned out to be a nice little comedy overall. I especially liked the scene where Andre is asked to play the piano and he chooses a song that infuriates the crowd. In any case, I enjoyed this movie and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.

Just a funny movie!! A movie you can enjoy to laugh without anything bad. My family and I have enjoyed this movie repeatedly throughout the years!

My Father The Hero used to be my favorite movie when I was Younger. It's about Andre, a divorced french man who wants to take his beautiful daughter (katharine heigl} on a vacation, hoping to get a little closer to her. But of course, Nicole isn't that easy to get along with, she just started puberty, i'm guessing. She is angry and hurt that her father was never there for her and decides to give him a hard time. One day at the beach, Nicole meets handsome Ben, and she makes up a wild story about her and her dad. The whole island gets involved and the movie turns into a hilarious wild entertaining movie. I would give My Father The Hero 8/10

This is a great comedy and I recommend it to many viewers. The most hilarious scene in my opinion is when Depardieu is playing the piano in a bar; he doesn't know that his daughter is trying to pass him off as her boyfriend, and he's singing "Thank Heaven for Little Girls" ... all the patrons except for one woman walk out in disgust, thinking he's a child molester! That scene is absolutely priceless and will leave you splitting your sides, guaranteed.

Most everyone seemed to find this film charming.

Am I the only one who found the premise of this film rather disturbing? A teenage girl trying to pass her father off as her boyfriend... After seeing the trailer and the first five minutes on television, I immediately sought ways to repress the memory of this film.

Maybe I should have given it more of a chance. Maybe next time around.
