Un papa hors pair

The plot is predictable but it's done rather well (aside from some tonal issues), making you feel good on the inside by the end. The performances are quite good, particularly by Kevin Hart which was a nice surprise as it's something that feels different to what he normally does. Melody Hurd was quite good too. Overall, it's just a nice little heartwarming film to watch. Would recommend.

Mad props to Hart for showing his real acting chops, and breaking his typecasting comedic-only roles.

As far as this film goes, it really wasn't anything new or extraordinary. It was 100% predictable, and filled with every possible cliche for it's genre. Writer and director Paul Weitz left our imagination starving with his formulaic and sappy slow paced screenplay, that felt much longer than its 109 min runtime. It also felt that Weitz intentionally left out many missed opportunities for laughter, just to keep Hart in character, which made the story that much more bland.

The only thing you'll remember down the road, is that "Kevin Hart can be a serious actor, like he was in that movie.... what was it called again?"

When my wife and I saw the trailer, we figured it could be really good or just alright (most trailers these days show the best parts because the movie sucks). Kevin hart was superb in this one, starting from the Gut Punch you get right off the bat, up to the ending. The trials, tribulations and doubts he goes through as a working single parent are easily identifiable by countless single parents throughout the world. This movie will make you laugh, cry and appreciate the efforts of parenting, share in the grief of loss and identify with his frustrations of self-doubt. In the end, this movie was really great. I am only giving it 8/10 because, aside from Marian and Maddie, the balance of supporting cast was just average. Definitely worthy of watching at least once!

Loved Kevin Hart in this, he played the role perfectly, using some comedy but sticking mostly to the drama and being serious. The storyline flowed well but the "all falls apart" felt forced and wasn't necessary.

This was a sweet and cute movie/story. It definitely brought a lot of ups and downs throughout. It really didn't capture my attention the entire time but it was good for what it is.
