Daddy's Home arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Daddy's Home does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. The story of a mild-mannered radio executive who strives to become the best stepdad ever to his wife's two children, but complications ensue when their freewheeling, freeloading real father arrives, forcing stepdad to compete for the affection of the kids. The chemistry Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg bring to it does a lot of the heavy lifting. Daddy's Home came out in 2015. What keeps Daddy's Home from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in Daddy's Home. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. Short enough to finish in one sitting, substantial enough to feel satisfying. Will Ferrell sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
