This film starred the hilarious Billy Crystal along with Bette Middler
and Marissa Tormei and was a genuinely heart-warming flick that holds
quite a few moments of hilarity, embarrassment, and tearful realization.
If you've ever struggled with a relationship with a parent or as a
parent, this film touches on it. It hit home for me personally because
it seemed to be focused more on the father-daughter relationship . . .
and I'll admit to tearing up in the end. It wasn't a brilliant
philosophical piece, but it's simple truth-filled look at the
often-difficult and bitter problems that stem from relationships were a
welcomed change in the theater. Addressing things such as the drastic
change in parenting styles and the problems overcoming old versus new in
technology, teaching and tee-ball, "Parental Guidance" examines
refreshingly examines a working real family - yes they have problems,
but they are still together. It was certainly a fun cinema experience
that had me laughing, crying, and ducking behind my coat (in the really
embarrassing moments).
Go see it if you get the chance, it's a fun one
for the family.
