Movies that feel likeDaddy's Home (2015)

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.

If you loved Daddy's Home, the closest films we have are Instant Family (2018), Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising (2016) and Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (2013). All three share Daddy's Home's witty and playful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Chef (2014).

Both lean on wit more than on comedy

When Jay and Annie first got together, their romantic connection was intense – but ten years and two kids later, the flame of their love needs a spark. To kick things up a notch, they decide – why not? – to make a video of themselves trying out every position in The Joy of Sex in one marathon three-hour session. It seems like a great idea – until they discover that their most private video is no longer private. With their reputations on the line, they know they’re just one click away from being laid bare to the world... but as their race to reclaim their video leads to a night they'll never forget, they'll find that their video will expose even more than they bargained for.
