Vložit

- Long before Michael Keaton was Batman, he was a gifted comedian making a name for himself in big-screen comedies. Fresh off his debut in Ron Howard's hit NIGHT SHIFT, Keaton became one of the biggest comedy stars of the day thanks to a string of comedies. One of his biggest smash hits was MR. MOM. While somewhat obscure nowadays, in 1983, this movie grossed a whopping $64 million dollars (equivalent to $174 million now) and cemented Keaton as a megastar.
It was also an important film in the career of its writer, John Hughes, who came out of the film with a three picture deal at Universal, which led to classics like SIXTEEN CANDLES, THE BREAKFAST CLUB and WEIRD SCIENCE. In our latest episode of JOHN HUGHES REVISITED, we go into the making of this smash hit, explaining how important it was for Hughes career, while also exploring the long-forgotten chapter of Keaton's career.

#MrMom #MichaelKeaton #JohnHughesRevisted - Zábava
As a soon to be 42 year old I absolutely loved this move as a kid, it was one of those films my parents watched which I actually enjoyed.
This is a family movie, jokes for the parents and kids.
As a 41 yr old, I totally agree. This one was huge for me. 🙌
As a 38 year old I right there with you
As a soon to be 41 year old, I totally agree! We grew up with “Mr. Mom”, “Gung Ho”, and “Beetlejuice”. Michael Keaton’s and Eddie Murphy’s epic 80’s run of great movies are my comedy foundation.
As a soon to be 43 year old, I approve your comment. 💯
Cashier: " Irv clean up on aisle seven"
Jack: " IRV We were never in aisle seven!!!
Never gets old!!! Love this movie!
The best! You feed a baby chile! 😂
"I have the right away"
"Right. Lets settle out of court" (hands her a bag of chips he hasn't paid for) LOL!
Keaton. The actor. The legend. The Batman!
The best!
He really was good in this. Chevy Chase would have been good, too, and maybe John Travolta. :)
I fucking LOVE this movie. It’s an underrated film and hilarious as hell.
"Freakin," man, "freakin". It's PG.
So funny and so true.
As a single father of 3,, I NEVER would've thought while watching this as a teenager, that I'd grow up to actually have to be LIVING that role, of having to be a "dad" AND a "mom" (all at once)... But at least Michael Keaton taught me how to iron clothes, AND make grilled cheese and/or toast (at the same time)!!
@@xhall0910 thx so much!👍🙏
(And to you as well ❤️)
One of my all time favorite comedies. One of the most underrated quotable movies. My wife and I quote it constantly.
You most have a great marriage. Seriously my wife and I do the same .
Mr Mom is one of the first movies I can remember seeing as a child and it's golden to this day.
One of my favorites, reminds me of the 80s and my childhood ♥️ love seeing the old products in the grocery store 🙂
This and Gung Ho got regular viewings while I was growing up.
Gung Ho forever.
I saw it in the movie Theater in 1983. I loved it then, still love it, and always will love it.
One of my favorite Michael Keaton movies.
“Are you crazy? You fed a baby chili?!”
I never understood this one. Does American chili make a baby poop a lot?
@@dasfreshyo more likely a reference to american chili commonly being quite spicy
"You'd better let me hold onto it, money makes him crazy."
Edie McClurg, was ALWAYS one of my most absolute FAVORITE supporting actresses!! She was really a beautiful and heartwarming lady (whatever role she played)! Just her voice alone, has always brought a smile to my face. She has a certain "warmth" to her (innate) human character. Any fella would be lucky to have a lady in his life, that's as warm, funny, and witty as Miss Edie!! ❤️💯👍
Still holds up all these years later!
I love the blanket speech. Strung out on electric blankets. Its a classic. I use Woobie all the time with the kids and talking about their favorite hoodie, or sweats or blanket.
I still remember my friend who has passed away from depression took me and a few friends to see this film in the theater.
Michael Keaton need to be in more comedies, this movie, Multiplicity and his role in The other guys are absolutely hilarious and some of those underrated fun comedies
My sister and I grew up watching this movie. Love it dearly.
this is in my Top 5 of all time...like many others, it inspired me to want to be a stay at home
Dad.
This and "Johnny Dangerously" are why Michael Keaton is one of my favorite actors
Love this movie. Keaton hit it out of the park. Thanks for reviewing it.
Love Michael Keaton! 💖 I graduated high school in 1983 and loved this movie as well as all John Hughes movies. Those were the simpler days! This was a Classic hit. Thanks John Hughes and Michael for all the laughs! 🤣All star cast. Martin Mull also great actor at the time. Interesting that Mr. Mom made more than NL Vacation .
My wife and I watched this for the first time last night. We laughed our butts off, and I found it so relatable. Great underrated classic.
Watching Mr. Mom and Johnny Dangerously take me back to childhood. Great movies!
Loved this movie as a kid, they should do a sequel called Mr. grandma.
We still call all blankets “woobies ” in my house, thanks Michael Keaton!!
Saw this in the theater! I’m old.
Who would hace thought in 1983 that Michael Keaton would be a Batman and a Spider-Man’s villain later
“ Just Get Bologna Mister “
This was my introduction to Michael Keaton. I love the crazy antics at the grocery store, the crazy washing machine, JAWS the vacuum, and "south to drop off, north to pick up."
This & Nightshift!
"South to drop off, north to pick up."
"That's a good system!"
"SOUTH TO DROP OFF, MORON!!!"
As a 80's kid..I can say my pops watch me, my brothers as my mum worked nites, he worked days construction. & yes my father wrecked the kitchen cooking in a wok. Lol So he was a working dad & a Mr.mom.
A slept on classic.
Love and own this film 😊
I loved this movie growing up...made Keaton a household name...
~ My brain is like oatmeal ~ As a Mr. Mom myself that is the most relatable quote for me in any movie about us Mr. Mom's.
Whenever my dad would pick us up from school ( or even my kids when he was a Grandad ) he would yell ‘south to drop
off, moron!!’ Haha! I love that.
Great 80s movie 🍿 🙃
Yes!! You would be surprised! I worked at a grocery store, and when the local car manufacturer left our town, suddenly the store was filled with confused men shopping and asking, "Why are there so many choices?" And "Wow, I didn't realize how much work this is! "How does my wife know which one to buy?" But another thing is, unlike most customers, the men refused to use coupons! 😂
Loved this movie as a kid.
Loved this movie as a kid. The scene when all hell breaks loose w/ "jaws" the vacuum cleaner....classic!
Mr. Mom, Gung-ho, Nightshift, Johnny Dangerously 😂😂😂
I got a copy of this movie from a McDonald's giveaway when I was a kid. I remember loving it, and wearing out the cassette.
I own this treasure. What a great movie from way back. I was 13. Movies and actors now cannot hold a candle to the movies and actors from then. Night and day. Very lackluster today. No substance.
It's still a relateable movie, for new parents, the panic and mess until you finally get a grip ... day by day
People forget or may not know that The Flintstone's had a very similar story. There was an episode titled, "Operation Switchover" in season 4 ep. 26. Fred and Wilma, make a bet to see whose job is harder. So they swap jobs for a day. This type of story has been passed on in many different ways. Mr. Mom is my third favorite movie of ALL time, it deserves five stars..
Growing up in the 80s, I watched most of Michael Keaton's movies because my mom loved Michael Keaton and he was Batman. One of his movies that never seems to get talked about is Multiplicity. It was really strange and the premise seemed kind of gross.
4 out of 5 woobies? This is one of the greatest comedy movies ever. I probably quote it at least once a week.
Great video as always !!!
The kid with the Woobie, Kenny, is Critical Role's Taliesin Jaffe.
This movie brings back so many good childhood memories and started my love of Michael Keaton
Mr. Mom and Night shift were two of my favorites
John Hughes movies are just one of the many things that made the 80s great.
When I was a kid that washer dryer and vacuum scared me to death! Lol
As far as I am considered, Michael Keaton "IS BATMAN!
Good Nice 80's comedy Michael Keaton was great 8/10 ⭐⭐⭐
As a Mr.Mom myself been waiting for this moment for 39 years!!
Great movie, good job Joblo 👏🏆🏅👍🎖🥇🎖🏅🏆🏆👏👏👏
TALIESIN JAFFE???? FUCKIN' RIOT!!!! This was one of those greats that we had on vhs with Benji, Annie, The Toy, and Short Circuit. Ah the days where my Grandma would record whatever was on HBO/ Showtime to let us kids watch whenever we wanted
This movie epitomizes my childhood! L9ve Michael Keaton...Love Teri Garr! "Gimme the woobie"!
JoBlo: And remember: don't feed the baby chili!
Me: Oh, you can, but he who feeds the baby, gets to change the baby--for the next week.
Great nostalgic movie
Let's be honest keaton is still a GOAT I hope if they make a batman beyond movie they let him play old man Bruce Wayne..
Sure do miss movies like these...
RIP John Hughes
The rocky scene at the car plant wasn't from Mr. Mom, it was from "Gung Ho".
love this flick.. still laugh my ass off..
"look at the size of that hole.. what did u use, a .38?? "
". 38. 39, whatever it takes ".
@Giana Lana COME BACK YOU COWARDS! ! ! oh God MEGHANNNNN..
I Loved this Movie!!!
Loved the movie and OMG Baby Talieson is so cute.
This gave me a flashback to the late 80's when we were visiting my aunt and I saw that she had this movie on VHS. My mom asked me what I wanted to watch and I told her "Mr. Mom". I never watched it, I think she talked me into watching something else 😂
I love this movie!
Mr.mom combined with gung ho makes for a hilarious double feature
Fun fact: Terri Garr lobied for the female lead in Nine and A Half Weeks. She actually wanted to audition for it.
What knockers!
I'm sti in love with you Terri Garr. Rawr!
I actually just watched this movie about 2 months ago...🌝. Quite interesting, he very much had certain views when it came to women and men.
I mean... in 1983 most everyone had those views. We have definitely grown in some ways since then so it doesn't age perfectly, but if you can view it through the lense of when it was created (1983) it's pretty great.
Think I had this movie confused with Multiplicity when I came into it. This looks fun. Throwback humor from the early '80s.
Michael Keaton was awesome in this movie. A good Michael Keaton double feature for the family is Mr.Mom and Multiplicity. Both movies are so underrated.
I enjoyed Mr. Mom, I seen it last year.
WOW.Completely forgot about this film,GOOD job on the retrospective review of this GOOD film JoBlo,may have to order this from Amazon.John Hughes was a GREAT film writer/director,is he still alive???And why did he stop making movies???
Keaton is iconic in this role, as is the case with pretty much every movie he’s done, from Batman to Birdman! BUT how cool would it have been if Steve Martin had done Mr Mom?!
5 out of 5 Woobies, thank you very much.
This is one of my favorite childhood movie. They lived in Detroit.... (Supposedly) . I live in Detroit.... I hope John Hughes didn't 'vacation' to Michigan...LOL..NOBODY takes a 'vacation' to Detroit...LOL...
I really gotta say also that I'm very surprised that Mr Mom beat out Vacation that year. Very surprising. And talk about a great year for Mr Hughes! As the next year Sixteen Candles came out and definitely made some descent money as well at the box office. Then in 1985 his magnum opus The Breakfast Club and another great Hughes film Weird Science. All these movies are beloved. The next year was Ferris Bueller which was a box office smash. Then later on topping off the 80s was his John Candy collaborations. And one of them being imo his funniest movie to date, Trains,Planes, and Automobiles. The man could not just pump out movies at a very rapid pace. But most of the movies he pumped out were always pretty good and guaranteed definite laughs. I don't think I've heard of another director or producer who wrote at the pace of Hughes or put out such great and consistent movies as Hughes. He ruled the comedy genre for about ten years steady. And let's not forget that he wrote the Home Alone movies(at least the first two) and them two movies alone may have made him the most money that possibly all of his others put together did. And he made a lot of money off of his other films as well. He never put out a shitty movie. The guy was a machine. And very consistent. And always very funny. The only movie he put out that was garbage was Class Reunion and other than that it was full speed ahead. He was the 80s king of comedy movies. To this day I don't believe anyone has surpassed him.
I watch this video as I’m getting my boys ready for school. I work but also am a Mr. mom!
Just saw the movie on Retro Plex on Tuesday morning at 5am.
Love this movie growing up and watch it from time to time. . .it's funny that the little boy who played Kenny grew up to be on the D&D podcast Critical Role
I love this film. One of the entire casts finest to their credit. And I could give a shit if I was called Mr. MOM as I was a stay at home dad for a couple of years. I know where the sentiment comes from and I can laugh at it
Please do Weird Science and Sixteen Candles next
We will!
Also something else noticable about Keaton's career is that he also played the same type of character that had to do with car production in Detroit and job security in the 1986 movie Gung Ho!. Except he was playing the role of having the basically the same job. He didn't do the male female role reversal schtick. He played as a sort of embassador figure and boss who got the Japanese car company to come to their fledgling car manufacturing plant in Detroit. Where comedy and hyjinx ensues. This was a pretty funny movie as well. Which also featured some known characters and also then fairly unknown actors who are became some big names in the future. It was a pretty funny movie as well. But not near as successful as Mr Mom. So that role I like to look at as being in the same universe as Mr Mom due to Keaton pretty much having the same job title in the same industry, and located in the same area.
Good flick.
i WOULD LOVE to be the stay at home dad!!!!
So glad this one isn't one of the obnoxious narrators. Great video we we don't get it delivered in an annoying desperately-comedic vocal narration. thanks
"Mom calls the vacuum cleaner JAWS ?"
Fun fact: Michael Keaton was also Chick Hicks in Cars (2006)
Aw baby Taliesin Jaffe, already being Taliesin Jaffe...
This movie is a classic, Martin Mull was one of the funniest heel bosses ever.
Would you.....would you be willing to cover all or most of his movies, pleasee.
That background music makes this a tough watch.
This great movie is from a time when society was better. Also, raising children is easy.
