I know Rowan Atkinson is not everyone's cup of tea, but this Christmas offering of Man vs Baby is a good light hearted, easy watching offering with a sprinkling of the Christmas story running through it. We have just enjoyed watching it with my 11 year old Grandson

Seeing this as a children’s programme it might be acceptable. Just my opinion but I thought it absolutely awful. Preposterous on a number of levels to the point of being worrying. AI baby is just unreal. Whole premise is unbelievable and not funny. Shame. Thought it might be fun!

It’s a light hearted comedy so I wasn’t expecting realism. The usual Rowan Atkinson getting himself into a pickle!

Fair point Margiknot. I suppose I was hoping for Blackadder!

I quite liked it but I had had a couple of glasses of wine

Thanks for the heads up. It might be a good film for Christmas Day when family are here late afternoon after the turkey, I'll keep it in reserve. It sounds suitable for all ages and RA can be very funny.
