Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: There are some good laughs to be found in Daddy Day Care, especially if you're a preschooler with energy to burn. This romper-room comedy shamelessly exploits its high concept idea--dropping Eddie Murphy into a seething den of rugrats--but kids will have plenty of vicarious fun as Murphy and his fellow laid-off colleague (Jeff Garlin) battle unemployment by opening a day-care center in Eddie's home. In partial Witches mode, Anjelica Huston hams it up as a day-care competitor bent on closing Eddie down, while doofus extraordinaire Steve Zahn is recruited as a third partner in 'Daddy Day Care,' trying his best to entertain a pack of hyperactive kids who've stopped taking their Ritalin. Zahn makes a funny Star Trek fan (even when the script contains bogus Trekkie trivia), and Murphy deserves credit for giving his all in a comedy that mostly squanders his talent. Indeed, is Daddy Day Care a comedy or every parent's nightmare? Daring viewers can decide for themselves. --Jeff Shannon
Product Description: DADDY DAY CARE is the hilarious comedy about kids ruling the roost! When ad execs Charlie (Dr. Dolittle's Eddie Murphy) and Phil (TV's 'Curb Your Enthusiasm's' Jeff Garlin) lose their jobs trying to sell a veggie-flavored breakfast cereal their wives head off to work. But when they realize they can't afford to keep their kids at the fancy Chapman Academy run by the evil Miss Harridan (The Addams Family's Anjelica Huston) Charlie and Phil become the proprietors of Daddy Day Care. Little do these two Mr. Moms realize that they have just begun their own adventures in babysitting! DADDY DAY CARE's excellent supporting cast includes Steve Zahn (Stuart Little) Regina King (Legally Blonde 2: Red White and Blonde) and Kevin Nealon (Anger Management).System Requirements:Running Time: 92 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY Rating: PG UPC: 043396017139 Manufacturer No: 01713

Rating: - Hilarious family film!
Eddie Murphy stars in this comedy about a guy who starts a babysitting center at his house. As you can already tell by the front DVD cover, things get pretty crazy! Lets just say--some kids get a little "naughty"!
I loved this film! It's full of many laughs and it has a good plot to it. And it's only rated PG! There's hardly any language to it, and there's no bad scenes. That makes this movie a great one to watch with the whole family! Whether you're an Eddie Murphy fan or not-you should get this movie!
Rating: - Adorable Family Movie
I hadn't expected a whole lot from this movie but Daddy Daycare turned out to be a real treat.
I knew the premise that Eddie Murphy loses his job and needing employment and affordable daycare for his own son decides to incorporate the two and open his own daycare. What I wasn't expecting was the sweetness, warmth and charm of this movie.
I really enjoyed Daddy Daycare. The storyline had depth and the actors did a really good job, especially Eddie Murphy and Steve Zahn. The kids were absolutely adorable.
A fun and touching movie for the whole family.
Rating: - Good clean family fun!
You know Eddie Murphy the trashmouth on stage seen in EDDIE MURPHY DELIRIOUS and EDDIE MURPHY RAW. Here,the Bill Cosby-ish Murphy is baysitting a bunch of small children at a daycare center. Murphy,a real-life father of nine,I believe was ideal for the starring role. This is good,clean,family fun for people of all ages,either no profanity or very little of the mild kind and no sexuality of any kind(never intended for small children). Hey,this film is ideal for exhibition in daycare centers and elementary schools. Those who saw this film also saw THE NUTTY PROFESSOR series and the DOCTOR DOLITTLE series(the remakes starring Murphy).
Rating: - Cute, Fun, Funny.
Cute, fun, funny, and heart warming movie that should leave everyone happy (which seems to be rare in movies these days). The kids steal the show in this "classic slapstick" movie, leaving Eddy Murphy looking almost like a comic "straight man". Lots of good songs in the soundtrack, and a guest appearance by Cheap Trick! Wow, I thought they were all dead or something.
Bottom Line:
If you don't like this movie, then you should seek professional help. Try the "Three Stooges" clinic, they helped me with my eye poking problem.
Rating: - Decent feel good family film
Daddy Day Care is nothing more than a feel good funny film that you can enjoy with your family. Eddie Murphy who back in 2001 hadn't made a movie I'd liked since Dr. Doolittle 2 redeems himself in my book with this movie. Steve Carr who directed the former might be Murphy's answer to a career come back. The kids in the movie make this work with their performances and one-liners. Ignore the critics and just go see this one and have fun with it.
