Daddy Day Care movie review - Aussieboyreviews
WILL KIDS LAUGH AT SLAPSTICK AND POTTY HUMOUR IN DADDY DAY CARE?
They will laugh at all the potty jokes, slapstick kicks and the name-calling. Daddy Day Care is a family comedy that’s slightly entertaining, but can also be very pesky and unlikeable.
Storyline
After being fired and finding difficulties in searching for a new job, two loving fathers, Charlie and Phil, are inspired to start a day care facility to make ends meet. Once their business starts to pick up, the established day care plans to bring them down.

Aussie boy's thoughts
Apart from Eddie Murphy and the other Daddy Day Care men, every person in this movie is an absolute pest. Although we frequently approach these characters, it doesn’t stop this kids’ comedy from being pleasurable, amusing and light-hearted family entertainment.
It’s worth the pick for family movie night; there’s no doubt that the young children will love the simple concept, and parents’ll also get a serious laugh or two during some moments. Overall, it’s quite funny and can occasionally be hysterically hilarious. It’s a pretty fun distraction to witness these two dad characters build an easy daycare, especially when Anjelica Huston as an established daycare principle runs to amusing ideas to shut them down.
Other than the fact that the story will easily bore many adults, there’s no seriously big flaws that need to be dissected other than how every character seems to be pesky. There’s frequent slapstick violence, which includes kids kicking adults and getting away with no consequences for their filthy actions.
