I wanted to like this film. Really.
After all, any Disney film with Russell, Flynn and even a young Kirby has to have something good, doesn't it?
Well, usually.
As a father who can't stand the thought of letting go of his little girl, Crane is kind of irritating as the "Superdad" of the title.
Did I say "kind of"? Scratch that: VERY irritating.
The main picture in my mind is of Crane screaming like a girl while taking a high water ski jump. After that, I'd just stay home and tell my daughter to go and have a good time.
At least Flynn's around for laughs. Why couldn't he have been the dad? Now that would have been really super.
Two stars, plus a half star extra for Flynn. Way to go, Joe.
