Product Description A REVERSE CINDERELLA TALE CENTERS ON A SUCCESSFUL ATTORNEY WHO FALLS IN LOVE WITH A FINANCIALLY CHALLENGED JANITOR WHO IS A SINGLE FATHER OF THREE CHILDREN. THE RELATIONSHIP HITS A SNAG WHEN THE JANITOR'S EX-WIFE COMES BACK INTO HIS LIFE & THREATENS TO TAKE AWAY THEIR KIDS.
Amazon.com African-American gospel auteur Tyler Perry leaves behind his over-the-top Madea persona (the driving force of his previous movies Diary of Mad Black Woman and Madea's Family Reunion) to craft a more subdued--yet more emotionally compelling--story. Monty (Idris Elba, The Wire) has been the sole support of his three daughters, but when his ex returns to try to claim them, he can't afford the legal counsel to fight her--until he crosses paths with Julia (Gabrielle Union, Bring It On, Deliver Us from Eva), a lawyer whose successful career hasn't helped her be successful in love. The story of Daddy's Little Girls doesn't hold a lot of surprises; the romance between these two will be bumpy while implausible but necessary-to-the-plot factors keep them from resolving their conflicts until the last moment. But what is surprising--after the grandstanding histrionics of the Madea movies--is how Perry has guided his topnotch actors to rock-solid performances that quietly draw you in. Though the plot twists smack of melodrama, the actors make each scene seem real. The strong supporting cast includes Louis Gosset Jr. (An Officer and a Gentleman) and Tasha Smith, who gives an unflinching and unsettling performance as Monty's ex, who decides to teach her daughters the harshest lessons life has to offer. --Bret Fetzer

Soooo good May 1, 2009 Janet This is better than chicken soup or chocolate. When things don't work out for me, I just watch this movie and feel better instantly.
Not bad April 18, 2009 J. Green (NYC, NY) Well, some of this movie is a bit cliche, and sometimes the acting gets a bit annoying, but overall this is one of those movies you can enjoy (if you're not looking for something deep, oh and you don't mind the cliches and the sometimes annoying overacting).
daddy's little girls March 18, 2009 Elie De Jesus (florida) it shows some of the hardship that black men today go through when they have to take care of their kids because their moms are acting the fool.
Daddy's Little Girl March 10, 2009 Carissa Rhule A good movie, suitable for all ages of the family. It was a very moving and motivational movie. The movie dealt with issues that the general audience can comprehend and also relate to.
Daddy's Little Girl's January 8, 2009 georgejess (Milwaukee, WI) Truly enjoyed the movie. It gave my teenage grandsons a good idea of fatherhood responsibility.
