I wanted to but couldn't!
Absolutely Fantastic
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
A former professional wrestler is hired to be the bodyguard/nanny for a couple of bratty kids whose inventor father is being stalked by a rival. Mr. Nanny is kind of a 'Kindergarten Cop' rip-off without the whole school and kindergarten thing. This movie was very much embarrasing to watch or even to enjoy as a whole. Hulk Hogan is not the type of "actor" i'd use for a role like this since he can't act at all and as i've said before he belongs on the ring and not on the big screen. The little kids were annoying and the whole premise fall flat. Just skip this one too. (0/10)
'Mr. Nanny' rides on the firm shoulders of Legendary Wrestler Turned Actor, Hulk Hogan, who despite being reduced to silliness, plays it sportingly & energetically. 'Mr. Nanny' Synopsis: A former professional wrestler is hired to be the bodyguard/nanny for a couple of bratty kids whose inventor father is being stalked by a rival.As a film, there is hardly anything remarkable here. Its like watching a low-budgeted version of the Vin Diesel hit The Pacifier, but in totality, this early 1990's flick might appeal to kids. There are a few laughs here, which frankly, are its only appealing moments.But Hogan is game here. He plays it to the gallery & even though he can't act too well, he still manages to give a sportive turn as Mr. Nanny.On the whole, Only if you love Hogan, watch it.
What does it take to make a winning movie? A winning combination in that movie. In Mr. Nanny, the combo was prowrestler and a babysitter. This movie should have one an Oscar for most unique concept, or perhaps the worst idea ever. I saw this flick when i was a kid and still thought it sucked. There were too many "what the hell?" moments in it to be good.
Number 47 on the bottom 100 list? It only got about 3.0/10! It deserves at least 5.9/10!! This was a good, clever family film with plenty of laugh out loud scenes. Hulk Hogan is good with younger kids. It's funny to see the way they get along with eachother. Good, Clean Family Fun!7/10 stars
