    When I was in love with JTT this movie was amazing. I still like it now though because it's actually pretty funny in a family sort of way.

    This is a comedy about a man who wants to marry this divorced women but wants to get the respect of her boy first. The film stars Chevy Chase and Jonathan Taylor Thomas. The film has a solid story and some laughs here and there. This is a good family movie for the kids and adults...( read more) to enjoy.

    This is a cute story of a man who is doing everything he can to befriend his financee's son and her son is doing everything he can to get rid of him, they eventually become good friends and have a load of adventures together along the way.

    I watched this movie again not to long ago to try and better remember it. As someone with a stepfather, I was able to better understand Ben's behavior this time. It was as good as I remembered.

    I'm sorry, but Jonathan Taylor Thomas drank The Blood Of Satan to achieve his success. I refute heresy and therefore, wishing no part in any of this, refuse to give anything he is in more than two and a half stars.
