The perfect movie for Father's Day. The film stars Kevin Hart in a heartwarming and true story. It opens at a funeral and wake. We discover that Hart's character has just lost his wife. The movie jumps back in time to him as a father-to-be and his wife leading up to the birth of their daughter. Just after giving birth, his wife dies. A bit of turmoil erupts when his mother and mother-in-law get involved and want him to move back to Minnesota so they can help raise his daughter. There are some amusing scenes when he's trying to figure out the whole dad thing. We jump ahead a few years and his daughter is now a precocious little six- or seven-year old. I won't give away any more of the story, but it's all fairly light, somewhat predictable. But the acting is good, especially his young daughter, and it's a fun hour and fifty minutes of movie viewing.
3 out of 5 stars
