About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an easy, feel-good ’80s comedy about reluctant caretakers bonding through chaos; Not for you if you dislike baby-centered humor, dated stereotypes, or a crime detour like in One Fine Day.
Pros: lots of laughs; charming baby moments; likable lead trio | Cons: contrived plotting; annoying crying; awkward crime subplot
