Watch The Pacifier For Free

Great Film overall

A Masterpiece!

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Recently I have found it difficult to find really good family films, and then I find a batch. I found this via the Pitch Perfect features, which I can watch over and over again. I rate that the best for several actors and it has gotten me purchasing a few disks of other work, just because. As an example of early Brittany Snow I have to rate this high. She was good in John Tucker (2006) and this is just as memorable, for me. Both amazingly fun films. If you rate this too, consider watching The Spy Next Door (2010). A similar story that gets a lot of really bad IMDb reviews, but a lot of really good ones too. I rate it even higher than this, though according to some you need the mental age of less than 12 to appreciate either. Such stories usually rate low at IMDb. Others in the amazing batch were Home Alone (1990) and Sky High (2005), which I rate as almost as good. The Pacifier: IMDb rating 5.5, 17.9% rate it as eight or nine or ten.The Spy Next Door: IMDb rating 5.4, 15.1% rate it as eight or nine or ten. Home Alone: IMDb rating 7.5, 52% rate it as eight or nine or ten.Sky High: IMDb rating 6.2, 25.9% rate it as eight or nine or ten.

I honestly don't understand any of the positive reviews. I like Vin Diesel, but the Kindergarten Cop he's trying to be neither seems badass enough nor comical enough. It's just flat. In a movie like this if it ditches realism than it has to be funny enough to make up for it. But what it delivers is plain ridiculous with both the "special-op" side being unreal and the family side being unfunny. I genuinely think Big Mama's House (the first one) was MUCH funnier than this. And I'm not even black mind you. Even thou the covert-op in that movie was unrealistic, the family situations and some suggestive grownup humor were actually funny. In comparison The Pacifier is nothing but slap- stick.

This was my favourite film when I was a young girl . Hilarious and entertaining . I remember going to see this film in 2005, I was about eight or nine and I nearly fell off my seat laughing. It's a great film to watch with your family . It is still one of my favourite comedies. I would recommend it to people of all ages . I must watch it again sometime. I haven't watched in about 5 or 6 years . The cast is brilliant couldn't have picked better . I would rate this film 10/10 100%. I loved it very much brings back many memories with my mother and I laughing our heads off . Good times , good times . If you haven't see this film rent or buy a.s.a.p especially if you are a big fan of comedy .

'The Pacifier' is a typical example of how Hollywood studios make family picture these days, in this case Disney and Spyglass. Get a star, throw in some actions (use car and kung-hu), add some jokes (slapsticks or toilet humour), and have some special appearances of celebrities or Oscar nominees, or if you can't, at least get some cute kids. Director? No matter. Just do it before someone else does it for this spring season. It is true that 'The Pacifier' is made with run-of-the-mill formula, but it does not follow that the film is not enjoyable. I actually smiled a lot, and the idea of putting muscular Vin Diesel (as Lt. Shane Wolfe from US Navy) in the dysfunctional family as body guard from underground organization is not bad. And as to the jokes, there are plenty of them, and the clever duck is also funny to see. Another good thing about the film is some of the relative newcomers. Among the kids, Morgan York playing precocious little girl Lulu is a real find. The director must have known it, for the film spends considerable time in showing her character. Surely his decision is justified. But there is something I do not like about the film. Though the death(s) are not directly shown, they are suggested, and the family who need Vin's protection in fact suffer from the death of the father. Isn't that unnecessary in making family pictures? In addition to this, there are many ill-advised decisions. Now let me count, 1) bullying wrestling coach (Brad Garrett) who is simply there to be despised 2) Helga, babysitting lady with intentionally heavy accent played by Carol Kane who looks like coming from 'The Addams Family' and 3) the 'ninja' idea which should have been dead back in the 80s. Oh, and 4) the suddenly introduced "love interest" (school principal played by Lauren Graham) for Vin Diesel, which is far from convincing. But the best way to describe the quality of 'The Pacifier' is to take a look at the CV of director Adam Shankman, which who has done J-Lo's unremarkable romantic comedy 'The Wedding Planner,' sweet but melodramatic 'Walk to Remember' and 'Bringing Down the House' so-so Steve Martin comedy. They are all commercially successful, but there are nothing particularly outstanding about them. Though it is fun to see, 'The Pacifier' does not change my impressions about his films.
