“HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for fans of the stars and Hughes.” – Dr. Stephen Larson, Blu-ray.com
“The film gets a shiny new transfer and a great Making-Of Documentary. This Shout Select release is going to be a no-brainer for any fan of this and 80’s comedies in general. Recommended!” – Adam Kautzer, Film Dispenser
“Mr. Mom is a classic comedy of the 1980s. It’s certainly hilarious in its portrait of what was happening to many men during the recession when they found their work had sold them out. I am happy to report that Keaton and company FINALLY get the respect they deserve with this solid release from Shout Select, which cements the film’s comedy classic status with a NEW retrospective featuring interviews from the cast and crew.” – Loron Hays, Reel Reviews
“This is a classic film that’s worth checking out on this fantastic-looking Blu-ray…” – No(R)eruns.net
“Shout! Factory’s Collector’s Edition – spine number 28 in their growing Shout Select line of cult movies – offers a solid Blu-ray presentation. Extra features include a nice looking-back documentary with producer Lauren Shuler Donner and members of the cast, as well as the movie’s original theatrical trailer.” – Austin Trunick, Under The Radar
“Take it easy on daddy. Remember, he’s a rookie.”
While Caroline Butler (Teri Garr, Tootsie) re-enters the workforce and becomes the rising star of her advertising agency, her newly unemployed husband Jack (Michael Keaton, Night Shift) finds himself a new job … as a stay-at-home dad! But if Jack thinks his old career in the automotive industry was tough, he has no idea what’s waiting for him at home: the ins and outs of dropping the kids off at school, soap operas, woobies, babies with chili, a clean-up on aisle seven and a vacuum cleaner named “Jaws.” Not to mention the seedy neighborhood drama!
Inspired, in part, by writer John Hughes’ (Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles) own life lessons as a clueless stay-at-home father, Mr. Mom is sure to have every parent slapping their foreheads with sympathy, as they slap their knees with laughter!
