spencer10 I happened to pick this film up at my local Blockbuster one weekend and was surprised because it was not bad. The story involves a paranoid author named Spenser Paley (Bob Saget, who I believe filmed this in his second to last season of "Full House".) Saget has not been spending to much time with his son (Brian Bosnall, form Family Ties. When Bosnall gets invited to go on a camping trip with his school Saget does nothing but ruin it by complaining. His companion is Stuart Pankin (who played the sheriff in Arachnophbia.) His enemy is David Graf (Who played Sam in The Brady Bunch Movie.) I loved Bob Saget growing up on Full House so it is not too surprising I enjoyed it. I will warn you however there are many corny jokes and if you are not a Saget fan stay away from it. Otherwise enjoy the show! Rated PG for some vulgarity and violence.

Andreas Niedermayer Brian Bonsall is a smart actor, but that's that. I have seen this one a few years ago. I remember it having been a more or less average movie. The story was basically good, but the actual transformation on screen was fairly simple and did not match the quality I look for in father-son stories, which belong to my favorites in general. Brian was still decent; he made me watch through the whole movie. I wonder if they could have made a better movie if they'd cast a different guy as his dad. This part was thoroughly miscast. Bob Saget did not fit in here at all, he hampered the advance of the movie's storyline and screwed up the emotional aspect that was subtly addressed.

Wfordgurl16 A few years ago, I found out that Father and Scout was on TV one week through my local TV-station listings. For some crazy reason, I used to like this movie. I later rented it from one of my local video stores. I always thought I was one of the dorkiest people in the world because I thought this film was good. My mom even bought me this movie for Christmas 3 years ago. Today, in a grown-up young woman's point of view, I believe this movie is horrible. The scenes were not at all funny, the acting was terrible, and it didn't have a good plot. This movie also had people getting hurt and I even saw one of the actors in it throw a screaming fit because he was getting wet. I also saw 2 people fight in the movie. It looked like some of the boys fighting at school. This movie costed $10 at my video store and I wish I could have my money back. I think I'll throw it in the trash or burn it because it may be too late to return it now.

bigitalsausage I've caught this one a few times on TV reruns, I think the reason I decided to watch it was because I had seen the box for it at the local video rental place ten years ago and always wondered what the hell this movie could possibly be about. but anyway.Bob Saget is kind of funny in this one, he goes to this camp with his kid who he doesn't have a close relationship. When he shows up he has a tough time getting used to the great outdoors. Great basketball scene where Saget shows off his hoop skills, that guy is like 6'4''. In the end Saget comes around to the whole nature thing and him and his kid get closer.Yeah, this thing was a big piece of cheese, but its not that bad.
