Review of Daddy's Home (2015) by Pipec — 23 Jan 2016

"Ferrell: Good Daddy - Wahlberg: Bad Daddy" Who won the battle of this indecisive comedy?

The first mistake of this film is seen with the naked eye, Why Daddy's Home? ¡Mediocre!. It would have been much better with "Daddy's War" adapting more to the plot of the film between a dad exemplary and a daddy not exemplary.

The participation of Ferrell in this shaky project (years ago, in something similar, interpreted by Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon) is without a doubt unstable. This man is in charge of doing good and deep comedies and Mark on the other hand, it is responsible to make comedies empty but the blockbuster (Ted - Ted 2). What comes out of this mixture? Visually, Ferrell is influenced by the attitude of its imposing and rockstar co - star.

Perhaps, the paternity's issue is adopted quite well the two stars, Dusty wanting to have more to his wife that his own children, tries it with bribes and telling fantastic stories and Brad being a good stepfather trying to overcome his enemy.

Linda Cardellini joins to Ferrell with her performance totally abstract, Interpreting a hopeful mother in pregnancy and executing the function of balance, she has to be balanced in part and part.

The "Other Guys" duo are reattached to give us something that can be called "Comedy". At the present time, the subject of divorce is easy in fury, and "Daddy's Home" takes advantage of these situations.

Undoubtedly, the part more exciting in a film in which two men fight for their children is the 'fight'. It's very striking is the 'VS' in this movie. War events are fun and hilarious and often it is the best of all the run - time. Really aimed a few aspects, little we can squint. it is tortuous but at the same time enjoyable and even a bit heartwarming. So the film is fun until the moment that it becomes irritating.
