She makes dinner. She does windows. She reads bedtime stories. She's a blessing... in disguise.

Loving but irresponsible dad Daniel Hillard, estranged from his exasperated spouse, is crushed by a court order allowing only weekly visits with his kids. When Daniel learns his ex needs a housekeeper, he gets the job -- disguised as a British nanny. Soon he becomes not only his children's best pal but the kind of parent he should have been from the start.

Caroline Westbrook · Empire 80.00/100.00

Although the broad comedy of the first half soon gives way to a tidal wave of entirely uncalled for sentimentality, this is still a laugh riot - the sight of our hero setting fire to his falsies never fails to amuse.

尤物小猫 4.00/5.00

其实对比全片来说结尾才更令我惊喜。没有在结尾强行让父母复合,而是用更真实的状态来表现,对于单亲家庭的孩子来说也足够有教育意义。 罗宾威廉姆斯太伟大了,在我心里是影史最伟大的男演员都不为过。希望船长在另一个世界可以一切都好。 单论剧情而言,男扮女或女扮男在影视作品中并不少见,九十年代也许会很具代表性,也能代表化妆技术的成熟。但是除此之外以一个离婚男人变为保姆重新加入家庭,以一名更富同理心的女性身份来了解持家的难处,这是十分重要且有意义的。更是很全面地表现(虽然篇幅很少)女性在家庭中的困境与难题。当然,如果能够更深入一点会更好。 不过也是突出了美国对于未成年人的保护制度在九几年就已经十分完善,社会和法律能够给未成年人应有的保护和避免因父母而受到伤害或者影响,怎么老瓷就是学不会呢。

James Berardinelli · ReelViews 75.00/100.00

Strictly speaking, it's not a top example of movie making, but it offers two hours of undeniably solid entertainment, and not too many viewers can argue with that.
