Grand-Daddy Day Care (2019) – Review

Grand-Daddy Daycare is a light-hearted drama and comedy combined in a movie starring Danny Trejo, Reno Wilson, Margaret Avery, Anthony Gonzalez and more.

Synopsis

When Frank Collins (Reno Wilson) suffers from writer’s block, he decides to start a day care for his father-in-law (Danny Trejo) and other seniors as a way to make quick cash, while giving him time to still work on his next book. Eventually getting a small group to care for, Frank soon learns that these are not your typical seniors and they can’t easily be corralled. With a code enforcement officer challenging the legality of his business, and his senior charges getting into all kinds of trouble, Frank’s work days become anything but effortless. Featuring an all-star cast of TV’s greatest stars, Grand-Daddy Day Care is a hilarious story for the young, and young at heart.

Review

Grand-Daddy Day Care began in what seemed like a predictable story. A family is struggling financially and needs a plan to earn income quickly. I wondered where this can be in relation to the Daddy Day Care movies we all know.

There is a very small relation about half way through the movie. The connection to the Daddy Day Care movies is a fun connection, but Grand-Daddy Day Care is more refreshing and although appears predictable, you will be surprised at the direction many scenes actually take you.

Then you find some heart-warming moments. I can’t remember the last time I saw a film that simply celebrated having a heart for the elderly and sending the message that “…You’re old! That doesn’t mean you’re useless”. This is a great family-friendly movie night feature.

Dove Family Approved: Saving Faith Movie Review

Lionsgate Films Movie Review: Saving Faith

On September 18, 2018 the DVD, Digital and On Demand feature, Saving Faith debuted! The first thing you will notice is that this movie is loaded with starts you know. The guest stars are Vince Gill, Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith. Are your feet tapping now? The cast is great too and some familiars such as Donny Richmond, Jenn Gotzon, Jim Chandler and Henry Cho to name a few.

Faith (Jenn Gotzon) owns a struggling theater in a small town. She is feeling hopeless about its future until her Uncle makes a few calls to some well-known friends. His thoughts are that a successful concert of stars may be what the theater needs to survive. The wrench? A local developer decides to sabotage the concert and he has a good fight. The concert needs to be enough or she will lose her business!

The movie is surely predictable when you read the synopsis. But, like Lionsgate does with all of its movies, there is enough emotion and great casts members who really keep you engaged and hopeful as you watch and live the story with the actors. It’s why we love these feel-good movies. All of the goods and family-friendly scripting makes it a great family movie night with a bunch of inspiration and hope to spare for everyone in the family.
