Daddy's Home was a great movie to watch with the older bunch. There is such a fantastically funny cast that you know your going to be laughing the whole time. Will and Mark make such a great team, hating one another is an easy role for them to play. 

There is a few curse words through out the film but the violence is minor and the comedy is mostly clean. 

An awesome movie overall!
