Mrs. Doubtfire

SHE MAKES DINNER. SHE DOES WINDOWS. SHE READS BEDTIME STORIES. SHE'S A BLESSING... IN DISGUISE.

Loving but irresponsible dad Daniel Hillard, estranged from his exasperated spouse, is crushed by a court order allowing only weekly visits with his kids. When Daniel learns his ex needs a housekeeper, he gets the job -- disguised as a British nanny. Soon he becomes not only his children's best pal but the kind of parent he should have been from the start.

Reviews:

  • Santino Lamb
    Visually stunning but lacked a compelling storyline. The movie was more style than substance.
    Rating: 3

  • Davina Powers
    A solid, enjoyable film. The performances were good, though it didn't really break new ground.
    Rating: 3.5

  • Cecilia Friedman
    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.
    Rating: 1.5

  • Hamza Leach
    Great concept, poorly executed. There were too many plot holes, and the ending felt rushed.
    Rating: 2.5

  • Jackson Butler
    A gripping story with strong performances. The ending was a bit predictable, but overall a great watch.
