Review

by Jason Di Rosso

A hammy comedy about an over-protective father who tries to discourage his daughter from enrolling in a far-away college while they drive cross-country to the admission interview. Martin Lawrence and Raven-Symoné as the father and daughter seem to be competing for laughs by seeing who can pull the funnier face, while Donny Osmond adds to the slapstick, playing a very camp father on a similar road trip. Mild, wholesome and probably only suited to younger audiences.
