DVD - Parental Guidance (U)

Laid-back grandparents (Billy Crystal and Bette Midler) are ecstatic when their distant daughter (Marisa Tomei) is forced to let them babysit her cotton-wool clad, tech-obsessed children.

The camp and cuddly older couple quickly realise their parenting style has not transferred to their uptight daughter and struggle to meet her expectations while trying to out-wit three children with personalities so polarised it’s impossible to believe they’re related.

Crystal squeezes in some of his famously well-observed one-liners and Midler settles into the cutesy grandma role like a pro.

Tune in for clunkily delivered, obvious life-lessons and the most sickly sweet, family-friendly viewing experience since It’s a Wonderful Life.
