Stop expecting De Niro to only do critically acclaimed movies and enjoy this with your kids.
It probably won't be a classic in years to come but it's an enjoyable hour and a half.

Getting my family to agree on something is hard enough, getting them all to like the same thing? Hardly never happens. I can see how if you don't have kids, maybe you're a young couple, you may not appreciate the humour. I have a family of 4, whos dad actually lives with us and everyone from my 10 year old son up to my 80 year old dad spent the entire time howling with laughter!! Yes there was a moment where my son thought it looked like a fun idea, but was quickly corrected by his grandad that he took no prisoners and my son changed his mind but honestly, De Niro was his usual funny self. I'm not personally a fan of Uma, she was more grown up and relatable in this to me though, so if you loved her in some of her older stuff maybe don't watch this just to catch up on some Uma time. Slapstick humour, Cheech and Walken were the icing on the cake for us. We will be buying the DVD. Thanks for a successful family film night (for once)
A comedy where adults played well but the kids crossed it all out. The kid overplayed it too much. Robert did an awesome job
"It's a fun movie you know, it's entertaining, well nothing really special here but I think Robert De Niro doing a very well act here, the story is very unique, it's very enjoyable movie and a very proper family movie"
It isn't the best story in the world but the movie made me laugh several times. So enjoyable movie!
