Some reviewers say it's sweet and emotional, and certainly those elements exist, but you'll only get to enjoy them, if you overlook the predictable and generic formula of its narrative.

Kevin Hart dials back his typical fast-talking manic personality for a chance at drama (plus some lite comedy). His character’s wife dies shortly after their baby is born and he faces life as a single father. The film is front-loaded withKevin Hart dials back his typical fast-talking manic personality for a chance at drama (plus some lite comedy). His character’s wife dies shortly after their baby is born and he faces life as a single father. The film is front-loaded with tragedy, but brightens up after a while. Most of the comic moments are wisely assigned to supporting cast members, leaving Hart as the straight man. While the story follows a familiar trajectory, it’s made more enjoyable by Hart’s sensitive performance, along with the always-wonderful Alfre Woodard (as the unsure mother in law) and cute, charming Melody Hurd (as the daughter). Overall, it’s a sweet little family drama with Hart doing a commendable job.… Expand

Really impressed by Kevin Hart here! Obviously it’s not Oscar-worthy stuff but I think it goes to show he can handle these more serious dramedies like a Jack Black or Will Ferrell

I rescue the good role of Kevin Hart in Fatherhood, however I do not omit the low quality of the comedy, and then force a dramatic final half hour. Surprised that I passed PG-13 rating considering most of the jokes.

Fatherhood is a simple, beautiful, and relatable movie. It's a family drama with a predictable plot but it's a cute story. It's mostly drama with comedy and emotions.

It's mostly drama with comedy and emotions. Kevin Hart performed the character of a single young parent very well. We have seen him doing comedy but he just rocked the character of an emotional parent who is concerned about her daughter's life and he is trying hard to balance both his professional life and family life.

I enjoyed the chemistry between father and daughter. There wasn't anything surprising in this movie. It didn't capture my attention but it was indeed a sweet story.… Expand

The movie never balances the tone well. One moment there are some classic Kevin Hart humour, like the scene where young Maddy pukes on Matt and another guy on the plane. Another moment sees Matt and Maddy have heart to Hart (sorry)The movie never balances the tone well. One moment there are some classic Kevin Hart humour, like the scene where young Maddy pukes on Matt and another guy on the plane. Another moment sees Matt and Maddy have heart to Hart (sorry) conversations. It's not really comedy-drama, more like drama, then comedy, and drama again.… Expand
