Father figures

OUT 16 february / CERT 15 / 113 MINS Director Lawrence sher cast Ed helms, Owen Wilson, Glenn Close, J.K. simmons

Limp BRO COMEDY from the Dp of The Hangover that attempts a statement on the concept of modern parenting but fails amid bad jokes about sex in the 1970s. Twin brothers peter (helms) and Kyle (Wilson) go on ‘Operation Who’s your Daddy?’ to track down mother Glenn Close’s former flings, none of whom are dad material. Via miami, new york and massachusetts, they encounter a former NFL player, a crooked banker and a do-gooder policeman, but the journey fails to reap their intended rewards. instead they learn about the meaning of fatherhood, which amounts to encouraging each other to score chicks, helping out a hitchhiker and, like, trusting in the universe, man. eb
