Synopsis:

"The movie we chose for the movie review is “Daddy Day Care.” This movie talks about two men who both lost their jobs and decided to open a day care center for children. The name of the day care center is “Daddy Day Care.” Because this day care center was run by two men, which conflicts with the general viewpoint of people toward childcare, the two men encountered difficulties in the beginning. They also had trouble dealing with the children. Finally, the two men gradually learned the skill of educating children, and defeated their biggest competitor. The reason we chose this movie for the movie review is that the idea of men taking care of children conflicts with the conventional point of view toward childcare. By watching this movie, one will see how men feel when they take care of children and how people may judge them."
