Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential video:
When Jack Butler (Michael Keaton) loses his job at an auto factory, he expects to quickly find another. But instead, his wife Caroline (Teri Garr) starts working for an ad agency and Jack ends up taking care of the house and kids. He soon runs afoul of shopping etiquette, a voracious vacuum cleaner, and he can't even drop his kids off at school properly. He starts losing his pride and letting himself go. He stops shaving, drinks at all hours, and watches soap operas. And not only does a predatory divorcée (Ann Jillian) have her eye on him, Caroline's new boss (Martin Mull) has more than business on his mind. Will their marriage survive? What makes Mr. Mom work isn't its role-reversal premise, but its clever off-the-main-plot scenes like the obstacle course at the company picnic, where a footrace with swim fins is set to a variation on the theme to Chariots of Fire; a poker game using discount coupons for money; or a traumatic, soap-opera-influenced dream Jack has when he realizes his life is going down the toilet. This is the first starring role for Michael Keaton, who went on to star in Beetlejuice and Batman; he makes the most of both its comic and sentimental side. The script, incidentally, is written by John Hughes, who later went on to write and direct The Breakfast Club and Home Alone. --Bret Fetzer

- Still a riot!
Mr. Mom is still a hilarious and entertaining film after 25 years. Michael Keaton and Teri Garr are a hoot together, they play Jack and Caroline who have three children. Caroline decides to go back to work after Jack gets the boot from his job, he becomes the "mom" and laughter and crazy antics ensue. This movie is pure delight, I highly recommend this timeless treasure, enjoy!

- Mr. Mom Always Funny
When we realized that our copy of Mr. Mom had gone missing, we ordered another copy. This is one of our all time favorites, and anytime we need a pick me up or a laugh, this is an oldie and goodie!! Thanks for having it.
