Pros: Cute, Happy Ending...of course Cons: Predictable
Since I've been doing daycare for a few years now, when I saw the previews to Daddy Day Care I knew I had to see it. I also knew that it would probably be a lot slapstick and fluff, but a light movie now and then is alright with me.

Pros: The little kids are adorable. Cons: A great waste of many actors including Anjelica Huston.
Preamble
The trailers were pretty funny and I was missing Eddie Murphy on the big screen. Even though the critics were awful to my man, I decided to take in a matinee with my son Ethan.
The Story

Pros: The kids are cute. Cons: Cuteness alone does not (nearly) a movie make.
Again we're forced to re-learn this hoary old movie rule: kids will laugh at anything. Jamming a paper-thin concept with simplistic pratfalls intended to make children giggle is a pretty lazy way to make a movie. But Daddy Day Care is even worse than...

Pros: Steve Zahn, Vegetable fight scene. Cons: Kevin Nelon
This film isn't bad, but its not good either. Eddie Murphy made a movie short on laughs and high on sap. The laughs that are there are enough to save the film from being complete dribble.
Eddie Murphy stars as an Advertising Executive who...

Pros: Cute and fun for the entire family Cons: A few plot issues
Well, I saw Eddie Murphy was in it so I thought my husband and I would enjoy it. I saw it was about kids so I knew my son would enjoy it. The entire family loaded up and went to the theatres. I have to say it was worth the ticket price. Any movie...

Pros: Mom can tolerate it, too! Cons: Murphy is certainly capable of more....
When Eddie Murphy loses his job, he and his fellow ex-employee-father decide to open a daycare. My five year old laughed and laughed. It's a good non-animated film for young kids -- and entertaining enough for the parents. There are perhaps some poor...

Pros: It'll entertain kids. Maybe. Cons: Boring. Predictable.
Plot - Eddie Murphy plays a man who looses his job and decides to open up a daycare center while his wife goes to work. Thats it.
It all goes as expected. He thinks its easy, finds out its not, hilarity ensues finding out, figures it out....

Pros: Decent plot Cons: Only a parent or a child could feel this movie
I saw the preview and thought, this looks funny.After all who could forget the main character in the nutty professor, right?
All in all I thought the movie was good, I wasn't particularly impressed by the movie, I laughed a little bit here and...
