WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Cortechba Overrated

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

SnoopyStyle Navy SEAL Shane Wolfe (Vin Diesel) fails to rescue security designer Howard Plummer (Tate Donovan). The secret program GHOST is still missing and Shane is assigned to watch over Plummer's children possibly find GHOST in the house. Captain Fawcett (Chris Potter) escorts the widow Julie (Faith Ford) to Zurich to open a recently discovered safety deposit box. This leaves Shane in charge of five kids, the nanny Helga (Carol Kane), and a guard duck. The oldest Seth (Max Thieriot) is in trouble with Vice Principal Dwayne Murney (Brad Garrett). Zoe (Brittany Snow) is the popular cheerleader but she has problems of her own. Principal Claire Fletcher (Lauren Graham) is much nicer.The movie starts with a weak version of a 007 action scene. I don't think it's necessary especially if this movie wants to be a fun family broad comedy. Vin Diesel is fun to make fun of. That's where the movie works best and where the movie should exist. He could actually be quite a fun straight man in a comedy parodying his tough guy image. This is not that movie. Vin Diesel being annoyed with the five kids and the duck is the essence of what this movie should have been.

FlashCallahan After an elite team of S.E.A.L.s fail to rescue a scientist who developed a top secret device, the leader, Wolfe, is assigned to guard the man's children while searching for information on where the device may be hidden inside the house. Along the way, he must cope with rebellious teens, child care, an overbearing school official and foreign spies also looking for the device....Arnie did it with Junior, Hulk Hogan did it with Mr Nanny, Stallone did it with Stop! Or my mom will shoot, now its Diesels turn to make a family friendly film because his star power is slightly waning.And its what you'd expect, he hates them all at first, they hate him, but soon they all learn life lessons from each other, and I do believe that the eldest son even comes out of the closet (but you really have to read between the lines).With these sorts of films, there is always a military style subplot, this one involving a machine called ghost, which causes Diesel to do some action scenes every now and again.Its not funny, predictable, and surprisingly very violent for such a light hearted film.But my daughter loved it, and that's all that matters, but I'm sure anyone over 10 will loathe it....

Spikeopath The Pacifier is directed by Adam Shankman and written by Thomas Lennon and Ben Garant. It stars Vin Diesel, Lauren Graham, Faith Ford, Brittany Snow, Max Thieriot, Morgan York, Carol Kane, and Brad Garrett. Out of Walt Disney Pictures, the plot sees Diesel as U.S. Navy SEAL Lieutenant Shane Wolfe, who is assigned to protect the Plummer family after they lost their scientist father during Wolfe's last mission. There's also the small matter of locating some top secret technology the father had been working on. But first Shane has to deal with controlling five children...So it's Vin Diesel's turn to be the tough guy willing to send himself up in the name of family entertainment. Falling in alongside the likes of Kindergarten Cop (Schwarzenegger) and Mr. Nanny (Hulk Hogan), Diesel's movie holds absolutely no surprises, more so given that it is after all a Disney production. While the critics inevitably gave it a good kicking whilst scoffing at the big bucks it made at the box office ($100 million plus in profit). I guess the big question to ask is just what do you expect from a movie such as this? With its formula and premise clearly not setting out to bend the family comedy rules? OK, perhaps the film lacks a multitude of belly laughs, and the direction is by the numbers 101, but it actually does exactly what it says on the tin.Diesel dose send himself up, while also kicking some butt along the way. The kids are the requisite of adorable or bratish, there's potential romance and there's even a comedy bonus in the form of Garrett's cringe inducing turn as power crazy Vice Principal Dwayne Murney. Hey we even have a link to The Sound of Music in the story, while the soundtrack, although sparse, is perky and witty. The acting around Diesel is variable, but this is his movie, and most of the fun is garnered from watching him peel away the layers of his macho image. You may have to be the kind of person who laughs at dirty nappy jokes, or wish to see Vin jump in to a sewer, but this is still decent family fun.A film made to tickle the kiddies and put a smile on the faces of the adults. With that in mind, it's job done. 7/10

k-dhesi You can't always listen to critics. Sometime's you have to see for yourself. The Pacifier is a delightful family film and quite funny too. Don't get me wrong it's far from perfect. But at least it's decent enough to kill some time with your family.Before watching this movie i knew for a fact it wasn't going to be perfect, or even brilliant. I though it would be a typical family movie with one or two laughs every now and then. Was i right? Not really. If your watching this on your own, good luck. You may find some pacific scenes quite original and cool but you may be a bit let down. But if your watching this with kid's it will be more enjoyable. Because your kid's will be happy with it and then you would too.The casting was OK. nothing brilliant but decent. Vin Diesel obviously stand's out here. And yes his role as a navy marine coming to take care of some kid's with a unknown mystery of a tape going on in the house. Suit's him perfectly. So don't listen to people that say's it the role wasn't for him. In fact if it wasn't for him, many of you people here would'nt be reading this or attempting to see this film. He was the main cause to the pacifier success.Even though some bit's were quite lame and weird. The Pacifier is an amazing family film full with laughs,action and a twist. Go see it with your kid's!
