Deux pères qui ont perdu leur emploi se trouvent dans l’obligation de retirer
leurs fils du très prisé institut Chapman pour s’occuper d’eux et deviennent
ainsi des pères au foyer. Se rendant compte qu’ils n’arrivent pas à trouver du
travail, ils décident de créer leur propre garderie pour enfants. Leurs méthodes
peu conventionnelles font de leur école un succès immédiat qui va les lancer
dans une compétition pleine de rebondissements comiques avec l’institut Chapman
dirigé par Angelica Huston, une « dure à cuire » qui à jusqu’à présent, envoyé
tous ses adversaires au tapis.
________________________________________
The dads are in charge. And the kids are all
right.Charlie (Eddie Murphy) and Phil (Jeff Garlin) are so
consumed by their high profile advertising jobs that they are completely missing
out on the joys of fatherhood. In the wonderful new family comedy Daddy Day
Care, however, their kids provide them with a crash course in child rearing,
with uproarious and heartwarming results.
After failing to
excite the public about vegetable cereal, Charlie and Phil are fired from their
ad jobs. That means no more expensive day care for their sons at the exclusive
Chapman Academy, run by the harsh taskmistress Miss Gwyneth Harridan (Anjelica
Huston).
While floundering aimlessly in search of employment
and tending to his four-year-old son Ben (Khamani Griffin) during the day while
his wife Kim (Regina King) is at work, Charlie has an idea. If he and Phil can
handle taking care of two kids, how much harder can it be to supervise
ten?
Much harder than they ever imagined. Every kid is
different and every one is a hilarious challenge, whether they're suffering from
sugar rush, fantasizing about being super heroes, or just demolishing everything
in sight, Charlie and Phil soon realize they are in over their heads. Way over
their heads.
But slowly they get the hang of it and their
new venture "Daddy Day Care" thrives, siphoning kids away from the stuffy
Chapman school. As the number of kids increases, they bring in a third
caretaker, Marvin (Steve Zahn), who seems to speak the children's language,
probably because he's just an overgrown kid himself. They teach the kids how to
read, play games, interact, and have fun at the same
time.
Charlie and Phil gradually bond with their sons,
coming to fully appreciate the priceless joys of
fatherhood. However, the better "Daddy Day Care" works, the
more threatened Gwyneth Harridan becomes, which leads to a
showdown.Now it's the daddies against the baddest mother of
them all.
