Daddy's Home 2 (2017)

Undescribable Perfection

Thanks for the memories!

Absolutely brilliant

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Will Ferrell used to be hilarious and now he's basically Kevin James in this

This film is for everyone and is extremely funny and comical. I think I enjoyed this one more than the first one which was also funny. I was laughing through from start to finish. The whole cast was brilliant, especially the 4 dads, who were absolutely hilarious. You really need to watch this movie if you haven't seen it already. I don't understand why they didn't get a good view from rotten tomatoes but it really did deserve a lot higher. If your looking for a great funny family comedy, this is the way to go.

I was really looking forward to this sequel, because I really enjoyed the first movie tremendously.And when I saw that they added Mel Gibson and John Lithgow to the cast list as well, then what was there not to like all the more?Luckily, this movie actually kept up to speed with its predecessor, and there was every bit as much fun and laughs here as in the first movie.The characters in the movie are great, and they are nicely portrayed by a great ensemble of actors and actresses.There are lots of hilarious situations in the entire movie, and I was laughing hard many times throughout the movie.So, if you enjoyed the first "Daddy's Home" movie, then you definitely have to watch part 2 as well. Because it is every bit as fun and entertaining.

Silly, soft second husband Brad (Will Ferrell) and macho irresponsible Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) are co-dadding harmoniously and have decided to have a single Christmas all together so that the kids don't feel conflicted. Arriving for Christmas are Don (John Lithgow), Brad's Dad, full of physical demonstrations of affection and every bit as soppy as his son, and Kurt (Mel Gibson), Dusty's aggressive, insensitive, rather cruel father.Here is a sequel even fuller of caricature characters than the original. None of the 4 males is even halfway believable. Wahlberg is the only one who doesn't overact massively. The plot is paper thin and unbelievable, and the climactic scene is idiotic.Yet it is an amiable experience because these silly characters are all quite likeable, even the unpleasant Kurt. There is amusement along the way. And I must say that Wahlberg's Bono moment, carefully set up earlier in the film, is a surprise when it comes, and is as heartwarming as it is ridiculous.This is one of those films that I shouldn't have enjoyed, but did.Oh, and it doesn't contain any F-words - imagine that!
