??/100 Forget The Last Jedi, there's a twist in Father Figures where the audience discovers that Ed Helms' character has been wearing glasses for 20 years for no other reason than 'fitting in'. He doesn't even need them. 20 years. TWENTY. YEARS. This is…

what if we had mamma mia specifically for dudes who like incest jokes a lot and not fun smash hit musicals
scoobert doo (aka mo)0/10 film. A toxic mixture of painfully unfunny, desperate, and overlong raunchy comedy and unbearably sentimental family melodrama, Father Figures is without question one of the worst films of the year, representing not just a pitiful directorial debut from…

NewtonDec 23, 2017Basically, the movie is good, clean, stupid fun. Nothing more, nothing less. I saw the preview so many times that I was afraid I knew the whole story. Of course not...they would never reveal EVERYTHING in the preview (believe me, I was like, this character hasn't appeared…

Ben Lecker likedFather FiguresThis was a good movie, I enjoyed the dynamic between Ed Helms and Owen Wilson, and the plot was interesting with a fun twist at the end. The comedy was just ok with some pretty funny bits, but overall it kept me having a good time throughout. Overall a solid 7/10
Larissa likedFather FiguresSo funny throughout. Just everyone they encounter just keeps getting worse! The whole situation just was insane and their mother was such a h***e. But the twist at the end I did not expect. Sweet but really sad.

Это типа мужская версия «мамма-миа»?) свадьбу красиво показали) пошло и с ляпами, местами мило. Концовка слегка ожидаемая, хоть и туповатая, но again очень милая) partly смешно
Mikayla likedFather FiguresI really loved this movie. Had a lot of big names in it that were all hilarious in their own way. I loved the story bc it had a lot of unexpected moments that were funny
Armand Boudon likedFather FiguresIt’s good, but at the end the whole search for their dad was meaningless. But still a good fun story. 6.5/10

I mean weird duo but I dig it. Funny but heartwarming? *all said in a Christopher walken voice*

Not as funny as I thought it would be.
BSBrandi StewartGreat movie. Had a great story line. We really enjoyed it.
SSScott StevensAbsolutely awful, the producer should refund everyone's money

unfortunately all the funny parts were in the previews
LBLisa BradyThe movie was allover the place.
JAJohn AbelThis was a pretty good movie. Most of the laughs came from what was shown on the trailers. The critics were wrong about this movie. It’s funny and has a good twist at the end. Definitely worth seeing!!

Very entertaining
LHLori HartmanA great movie if you don’t mind the sexual content that is all verbal. It’s not for those who don’t like sexual jokes.
SGSophia GonzalezRated R but tame ! Nice balance of funny and family

Father Figures is a baffling film, one that never seems to ever get a handle on what it is or what it wants to be. It’s one thing to make a movie about characters stuck in arrested development, unsure of where they’re going, but it’s another for the writing and editing to also feel that way. In short, Father Figures is just a straight-up mess.

Watching Father Figures is like finding a piece of food in the back of your fridge that you barely recognize, but know right away it’s not worth eating.
