Three Men And A Baby

A remake of the hit French comedy "Trois Hommes et un Couffin" ("Three Men and a Cradle") about a trio of confirmed bachelors who unexpectedly discover the joys of fatherhood when a baby is left on their doorstep. The three men -- an actor, an architect and a cartoonist -- share a swanky pad where they entertain a steady succession of one-night stands. This all changes when a woman appears at their apartment one day with the actor's illegitimate infant. Dad happens to be out of town at the time, so it's up to his two woefully inexperienced roommates to deal with the baby that has been abandoned to their care.

    View all
  • 4 stars out of 5

    The title says it all — bachelors Ted Danson, Steve Guttenberg and Tom Selleck are left holding the baby abandoned on their doorstep, and it's not long before they are knee-deep in bottles, nappies and gooey moments. The three leads look suitably harassed as they adapt to changing, feeding and burping duties, and director Leonard Nimoy (Mr Spock himself) keeps the comedy and entertainment coming thick and fast. Based on the French film 3 Men and a Cradle, it's thoroughly enjoyable family fare.

    • Radio Times
  • Slight comedy, given some momentum by a heroin-dealing subplot, which proved surprisingly successful with audiences thanks to energetic playing.

    How not to look after a baby

    This is a good comedy where three hapless bachelors make a complete mess of looking after a baby and being a father myself I found myself shouting at the television trying to tell them what they are supposed to do.

    Well worth the rental and if your a parent to be then worth watching to see how not to do it!
