Vin Diesel is game to soften his tough-guy image in The Pacifier, in which he plays hot-shot Navy S.E.A.L. Shane Wolfe, whose latest mission goes awry when the scientist he's sent to rescue is popped off before he can tell Wolfe where he's hidden some Top Secret software something-or-other. Before you can say Kindergarten Cop, Wolfe is assigned guard duty at the scientist's family home, where he's left with some unruly kids when the widow (Faith Ford) takes off to Switzerland to claim her hubby's safety deposit box under the guidance of Wolfe's superior officer. The trouble with this paint-by-numbers fish-out-of-water kiddie comedy is that Diesel himself is a fish out of water in the movie--he's no comic and is far funnier when he's unintentionally spoofing macho heroics in The Chronicles of Riddick. The film limply throws everything it can at you, including the idea of Wolfe directing a community theater production of The Sound of Music, but is just biding its time until the predictable action climax and hugs-all-around denouement. Vin doesn't look embarrassed, but the supporting cast sure does, especially Everybody Loves Raymond's Brad Garrett as a bombastic vice principal and Gilmore Girls' Lauren Graham as Garrett's boss and Diesel's sudden love interest.--Steve Wiecking

 Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's AWESOME April 18, 2009
I Love Bruno (USA)
I can't say enough how much I enjoy this movie! Vin Diesel is utterly irresistible as his tough guy act seems to play like just that- an act. His strength, warmth, and genuine chemistry with the child actors really shines through. A way too small turn by Lauren Graham is just icing on this family friendly comedy cake. Brad Garret is type-cast annoying in (one of the) villian roles. The beginning of the movie was rather startling as I hoped the father might show up in the end. The fun and sweetness of the many babysitting perils is pure joy. One of the few movies where you can get a good look at Diesel shirtless. Love Vin Diesel, love (most of) the cast, love this movie!!!

An Absolute Delight Could have Been Better October 12, 2008

An absolute delight but could have been better. This Film was a delight for all ages and all audiences but there could have been better scenes and the movie itself could have been a little more practical. otherwise i recommend it for everyone and say that its very clean with a little bit of everything. The movie starts out with a tough mean looking navy seal whose assignment is to 'babysit' some children. he must do this because the father holds very important information and he has been kidnapped. the mother must go away for a few days and so Mr. Shane Wolfe (vin Diesel) is stuck with a babysitting job. and of course after a few days Shane gets used to handling the teens and diapers and toddlers in the household.... This is a fun filled adventure good for the whole family!

Vin Diesel is the most EPIC actor of my generation August 29, 2008

Pound for Pound, Vin Diesel is the best actor in Hollywood. With such critical acclaim from Fast and Furious, Chronicles of Riddick 1,2, &3...11, Saving Private Ryan (Caparzo, the guy who gets taken out by a sniper. He is without question very EPIC and if you didnt pick up the sarcasm, you probably wont enjoy his finer works in A Man Apart, XXX, and Boiler Room. But if you enjoy Lady in the Water, you'll enjoy Vin's entire catalogue.
