Mr. Mom

Ah, the eighties thought stay-at-home dads were a hilarious concept. Jack quits his job to run the house while his wife keeps the paychecks flowing, only to discover housework is harder than it looks. The comedy sags where it should soar, but it nails one thing—the surreal humiliation of grocery-store tantrums.
