Parental Guidance

About This Movie

So, Parental Guidance is a pretty interesting watch. It dives into the generational clash between grandparents and their grandkids—Artie and Diane are these well-meaning, old-school types thrown into the chaos of modern parenting. You've got the typical comedy setup, but it feels a bit more grounded than just slapstick. The pacing has a nice mix of heartwarming moments and zany antics, often stemming from the grandparents trying to adapt to their grandkids' tech-savvy ways. The performances bring a certain charm; Billy Crystal and Bette Midler have this chemistry that adds depth to the humor. The film's exploration of family dynamics and shifting parenting styles gives it a unique flavor, even if it leans into familiar tropes.
