Review of Why Him? (2016) by Jim222001 — 14 Jun 2017
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.
