Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì  The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee—comical—earns a watch. Typical Paul Hogan fare that provides his unique flavor that audiences grew to love in his entertainment.

MAN OF THE HOUSE (Released to Theaters USA 1995)

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì  Man of the House— is an interesting film and the acting is good to suitable. The story is rather ho-hum but don't pass this one up. The conclusion delivers a hard punch to the gut to remind audiences of the importance of loyalty and imbuing value to the quality of steadfastness. Interesting cast mix adds to the value of the film. It is basically a suitable film in presentation, portrayal, and camera work. It is the concluding scenes that make this film memorable.  Film Poster Courtesy of Google Images Storyline  Sandy Archer wants to get married again after her husband leaves her and her son many years before. When she begins dating again, she finally settles on lawyer Jack Sturges. But her son is not convinced that Jack will stay and believes he will leave like his father did.   Additional Thanks  Thank you to Director James Orr for directing effort. Thank you to Producers Bonnie Bruckheimer and Marty Katz for making the film possible. Cast includes Chevy Chase, Farrah Fawcett, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, George Wendt, David Shiner, and Art LaFluer. Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?  Maybe. It is a suitable watch overall but has some suggestive themes. Watch for an exceptionally well done closure that delivers a whale of 'the moral of the story is'. Terrific story about the most important thing a step-parent or any parent needs to do for children and spouses. Watch for Art LaFleur and George Wendt as guest stars.
