Let me first start off by letting you know that I never watched
the first movie. Not that I didn't want to, because I actually did, however
life got in the way and I never got a chance to see it. I wasn't expecting
there to be a sequel, and figured the first must have been pretty good if a 2nd
film was now hitting the big screen. I must admit I was a little apprehensive,
especially after the seeing Bad Mom's 2, which had twice the mom's and half the
laughs. Daddy's Home 2 seemed to have the same going for it, with twice the
dad's. I enjoyed the trailer, I was just hoping the additional characters
wouldn't sacrifice the comedy.
Well I have nothing much to
compare this film to since I missed the first. So I'm just rating this film on
what I watched. I thought this movie was ok. Luckily for them, unlike Bad
Mom's, the additional characters added to the humor, so I definitely found
myself laughing. However some of the comedy was so contrived, and corny at
times. I think Ferrell and Wahlberg make for an interesting comedic pair, I
just wish the comedy felt more natural...eh :/.
Not the worst comedy I've seen
this year, but definitely nothing to go running out to see. If you catch it on
cable, you will enjoy the laughs and the comfort of not wasting of that hard
earned cash...C+
