Von allen Typen, die seine Tochter hätte haben können, why him?
Ned ein überfürsorgliche Vater, will in den Ferien gemeinsam mit seiner Familie seine Tochter am College besuchen. Schnell wird der Trip zum Albtraum, als Ned seinen vermeintlich zukünftigen Schwiegersohn Laird kennenlernt, ein gutmütiger, aber etwas veschrobener reicher junger Mann. Ned, der sich als Geschäftsmann aus einer Kleinstadt in dieser glamourösen schnelllebigen Welt nicht besonders zu Hause fühlt, entwickelt direkt eine Rivalität zu dem jungen Technik-Genie und nimmt sich vor, seine Tochter um jeden Preis vor dem zu bewahren, was in seinen Augen der größte Fehler ihres Lebens werden könnte.

I wasn't expecting to like this movie too much, but it surprised me. From many funny lines and likable characters, to tech being used in the movie in a funny way. [spoiler]The Pink Panther relationship between Laird and Gustav had me laughing hard. Especially when Ned is looking out the window, seeing them fighting xD Also rewinded multiple times to see Elon Musk :D[/spoiler]
I'm not sure why, but we seemed to enjoy this a lot more than we probably should have!
Bryan Cranston deserves better than a movie where he's on a high tech toilet trying to figure out how to wipe himself without paper. Where his wife asks "did you make a doo doo ?". Cranston and Franco have chemistry but we've had how many movies about a father that doesn't approve of his daughter's boyfriend ? I expected a movie like Guess Who or Meets the Parents. It's better than Guess Who at least. Franco's character is so unlikable that you don't root for him to win Cranston's approval. But since we have seen similar movies many times, we know he will. When he does, it's pretty sudden and forced.
Quite entertaining movie, I must say! Cranston and Franco's performances are exquisite. Really fun to watch after New Year's parties :)
I expected it would be dumb, but I was surprised. Silly jokes were actually funny and almost tasteful. Fun and entertaining.
