Robin & Billy: perfect together!
Added 5/14/2007
My daughter loves this movie!
From my standpoint it's only a fair film with a silly plotline.
But it's worth watching it just to see Robin Williams & Billy Crystal, two of the funniest guys in movies working together.

A dream team that turns out to be a snoozer
Added 12/29/2006
FATHER'S DAY writers Lowell Ganz and Bobaloo Mandel wrote great film comedies such as SPLASH, CITY SLICKERS, PARENTHOOD and A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN. And FATHER'S DAY director Ivan Reitman made gems such as STRIPES, GHOST BUSTERS and TWINS. With zany Robin Williams and Billy Crystal in lead roles, how could FATHER'S DAY turn out to be so dull - and not even interesting? I don't know, but the story seems little more than a bunch of ideas for a film thrown together, as if there was not enough time to iron out the script before shooting the movie.
Oddly, the athletic Robin Williams plays the softy while the runt Billy Crystal is someting of a tough guy in FATHER'S DAY. It's hard to believe and, more to the point, not funny. About the only refreshing aspect of the film is Nastassja Kinski, whom I had not seen in a film in more than ten years. Not that Kinski has much to do in FATHER'S DAY, but her brief, wasted presence is the movie's sole redeeming feature.
