Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

This is a movie from my childhood. Watching it now again brings back good memories. The movie is pretty funny with VIn Diesel playing his clumsy role in the best way possible, the kids are acting pretty well, altho the ending along some other scenes throughout the movie are typical american cringe movie sequences. All in all, this is a typical lazy Sunday night movie for you and your family, nothing gore, sexual or offensive in any means.

After failing to protect a government scientist Navy SEAL Shane Wolfe (Vin Diesel) is given arguably his toughest task yet - looking after the children of the now deceased government scientist. Wolfe is not only tasked with looking after the children but he must also try to locate their father's top secret experiment whilst also trying to protect the children and his experiment from unscrupulous individuals who are trying to get their hands on this document. Could this be Wolfe's toughest assignment yet? Let's face it if you're looking for a film with a good story or if you're looking for anything remotely original then this film is probably going to be a little bit disappointing. It's evident very early on that the story is not really important in this film - even when the film ended I was convinced it only existed to set the film up and end it as it was given barely any focus at any other time. Normally this would bother me slightly but I have to admit that I was so caught up in the zany antics on offer here that I actually stopped caring about the story (which is probably one reason why I enjoyed it so much).When I looked at the premise The Pacifier looked to me like it would be similar to Kindergarten Cop and in a sense it is (albeit crossed slightly with Three Men and a Baby perhaps) - Vin Diesel is essentially in a similar 'fish-out-of water' scenario whereby his toughest assignment is to look after a bunch of unruly kids. I think what makes this film work better than it has any right to is that it doesn't take itself seriously and adopts a very tongue-in-cheek approach. You get to see silly things like Vin Diesel chasing a bus whilst riding a little girl's bike and doing a Panda dance. It's very hard not to laugh when seeing these sorts of things and a lot of the funny stuff here is actually cute rather than being vulgar. Running with the 'not taking itself seriously' theme I was pleasantly surprised that a macho type like Vin Diesel was also prepared to have himself sent up - the scene where the little girl asks him if he's got boobs was brilliant. It's clear that the writers have a good idea of how to make clean gags that work and it's also great that Vin Diesel was a good sport by allowing the p*** to be taken out of him. It's always a bit worrying when you see a macho guy try to do comedy, but like Arnie Vin Diesel clearly has the ability to pull it off and like I say the results are nowhere near as horrendous as you may think.Although The Pacifier is a lightweight and enjoyable romp there are some notable weaknesses; as I've mentioned the main story is quite thin with very little actually driving it forward (it's practically forgotten about for much of it's running time). It's a little clichéd at times and it's also not the most original of films.Whilst it's far from perfect The Pacifier is reasonably funny and it works surprising well due to the fact that it simply doesn't take itself seriously. I cannot guarantee that it will be everyone's cup of tea but I for one quite liked it and think it's a little bit underrated.

This was not one of Vin Diesels best movies. I enjoy his others just not so much this one. Saying that though, if you just sit back and watch this movie with no real expectations, you just might like it. A male babysitter is relatively unthinkable. Diesel excels in it. It's actually cute watching him with the kids. It's a cute movie for the kids. Families can sit back and all can enjoy it. Nice to see him drop the tough guy act and try to be a family man. Of course he comes in for the save but it wouldn't be his movie if he didn't. You even get to hear him sing. Sit back with your family and enjoy. Don't forget the family.

After an elite team of S.E.A.L.s fail to rescue a scientist who developed a top secret device, the leader, Wolfe, is assigned to guard the man's children while searching for information on where the device may be hidden inside the house. Along the way, he must cope with rebellious teens, child care, an overbearing school official and foreign spies also looking for the device....Arnie did it with Junior, Hulk Hogan did it with Mr Nanny, Stallone did it with Stop! Or my mom will shoot, now its Diesels turn to make a family friendly film because his star power is slightly waning.And its what you'd expect, he hates them all at first, they hate him, but soon they all learn life lessons from each other, and I do believe that the eldest son even comes out of the closet (but you really have to read between the lines).With these sorts of films, there is always a military style subplot, this one involving a machine called ghost, which causes Diesel to do some action scenes every now and again.Its not funny, predictable, and surprisingly very violent for such a light hearted film.But my daughter loved it, and that's all that matters, but I'm sure anyone over 10 will loathe it....
