Movie Reviews of Man of the House
Movie Review: Lighten up, everyone! Tommy Lee did!
Summary: 4 Stars
Okay, it's not Shakespeare. It's not brilliant cinema. And I didn't see it for the cheerleading babes (I don't do cheerleading babes). I do do Tommy Lee Jones (okay, I admit it-- I have a real thing for Tommy Lee Jones). And, while he's primarily a dramatic actor, and has done lots of heavy roles and thriller/adventure stuff-- in which he shines, usually above the material--- I think he's just a hoot and a half in the comedies he's done. I can watch MIB and MIIB over and over. And even if this movie is feather-light, Tommy Lee delivers his deadpan straight lines in such a way that you can't help but getting a kick out of it. The editorial reviews really nailed it: yes, it's predictable, yes it's fluff--- but it's good and fun predictable fluff. If you liked Mr. Jones in the the Men In Black films, you'll like him in this too. He certainly seemed to have fun doing it. No reason for you not to have fun watching it. I did.Movie Review: Even Guys Can Like This Movie, I Do
Summary: 4 Stars
I, for one, didn't hate this film. Being a Tommy Lee Jones fan, it was natural that I wanted to see the movie, especially since the commercials made the movie look hilarious. This is one of those films where all the best scenes are shown on the TV commercials, but that doesn't mean this movie is bad. I really did enjoy this film and was smiling a lot of points in the film. It is very true that this film wouldn't be for everyone, but it's not the worst thing I have ever seen. It has a nice mix of action in the film. So if you like movies like Bring It On and things like that, you'll like this for sure.
This isn't a Oscar winning film, but for good ol' fun, it ain't bad.
Movie Review: Funny movie with some painfully cheesey moments
Summary: 4 Stars
Man of the House is for all intensive purposes a funny movie and a good example of a comedy done right. Tommy Lee Jones plays a Texas Ranger who must protect 5 college cheerleaders from a hitman hired to clean up after a botched assassination. The interaction between Jones and the girls are funny, and Cedric the Entertainer is good as the Priest who was also a former cheerleader himself.
The only downside is that there are moments where the cheese facter reeks a little too much. This movie is not neccisarrily intelligent or witty, but as an overall comedy it does itself pretty good.
Movie Review: I would say watch the movie
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie is about a bunch of cheerleaders that witness a murder that Tommy Jones has to take care of. The girls always walk around in short clothes and Tommy struggles with the concept of he has to live with these women cheerleaders and he also cant find a way to talk to his daughter and these cheerleaders help him do that. and Also help him with a date he has. If you like that type of stuff this movie is for you. Its funny to me but everyone has an opinionMovie Review: Man of the House
Summary: 4 Stars
I like Tommy Lee Jones, I know the pundits panned the movie as poor, but I find it funny and serious parts. Being a Texas ranger (Jones) and having to protect college cheerleaders from a bad guy and pretending to be their coach is funny, but the girls and Jones come around to understand each other and the girls help save his daughter in the end shows that they are made of the right stuff.
