I really enjoyed this movie!

 Going into this film, I expected some trite family comedy with a lot of cheap gags involving things like the normal guy trying to change diapers. That’s why I was really impressed. I enjoyed it a lot! This movie proves why it’s a shame that Michael Keaton has turned to “Michael Who?” in the eyes of Hollywood. I hope to God he doesn’t start doing direct-to-video crap like some once-popular actors. He is a true talent with impeccable comic timing!
The script is well-written. Though you can call it predictable, it deserves to be predictable. Besides, the plot turns make sense in the context of the characters, and don’t feel contrived. The film delivers a fine message without suffocating you with corny sentiment. And Keaton’s wonderful performance keeps the film airtight. Mr Mom

There are many hilarious moments. The gag in which Keaton plays poker with a group of homemakers, using coupons instead of money, is absolutely priceless! Plus, I felt for the characters and when you feel for the characters, the jokes are always funnier. When Keaton gets himself into one dilemma after another, I was laughing because I felt sorry for him, and that’s the key to physical comedy. You have to care for the character’s intentions.
Mr. Mom is a funny, sweet, kind-hearted family comedy that doesn’t cater to any particular age group. At first glance, it looks an anti-parenting film that manipulates us guys into thinking, “Geez, I’m never gonna have a kid.” But as Keaton’s character goes through his arc, your attitude changes along with his. Go see it! A truly entertaining movie that’s likable in all aspects!
