Lots of cartoonish action from the father, the baby and the dog. There is cartoon violence. People are hit and blown up – including the dog – but nobody dies, or is injured. |
| A View |
I had never heard of any of these actors, a bad sign, but when I looked it turns out that Traylor Howard was Monk’s assistant. Also this film got the worst reviews of any I have written about, but it was not the worst in my view. They were careful with the baby, so don’t expect too much. |
