Big daddy.... in most homes an Iconic name......

Big daddy is an amazingly spectacular film that doesn't even have to be watched the whole way through to be loved (exactly what happened in my case)

I managed to only see half of this comical film and still absolutely adored it.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it was a masterpiece as it didn't really fall into my favourite category of film.

I would have to say that this films unique look from the point if view of two troublemakers(that are both not doing well off in life).These two 'troublemakers' cross paths and start off a sweet and hilarious film which in the end both end up making each others lives much better.

(Beware this film leaves you feeling butterfly's and a void in your heart, this film has got me the closest to crying in a loooooonnnnnggg time,but does sort of patch it up in the end)

Over all this film isn't in my top 10 favourite films but does earn a place in the big book of enjoyable films for a family and friends (with not too young kids around)
