	Epinions.com - My Father, My Hero
		My dad had only a handful of experienced non-commissioned officers to provide the backbone of leadership that would prevent his company from folding and breaking like so many other units did in the face of massed German armored formations.
		My mom, being the great person she is, understood that being a soldier is who my dad was and agreed to go with him wherever the Army sent him.
		My dad continued to serve and be promoted and by the mid-1960s, was a Lt Col and battalion commander.

		Embarrassed to admit she's only 14 and on vacation with her father, she introduces her parent as "Andre," and later explains he is her lover.
		By way of helpful additional information, she confides that her father is in jail, her mother is a prostitute, and Andre rescued her from a life of depravity on the streets.
		The teenage boy lives with his parents in a seaside villa, from which the father emerges only to utter lines necessary to the plot; the rest of the time, he hears and sees nothing, even when the girl ties a love letter to a rock and throws it through his son's (closed) window.

		The movie has a long-running joke, and that is the rest of the tourist community has caught on to the rumors while Andre is of course oblivious to their treating him like a disgusting pervert.
		Depardieu is a convincing father, concerned about his daughter and saving the family that continues to grow further apart.
		There are flaws in “My Father the Hero.” Miner does a good job, but there areas he could have easily cleaned up.

	My Father the Hero
		My father is the quintessential practitioner of logic.
		My sister and I -- both of us married and with beds of our own -- have emphatically assured my father that neither of us will ever be inclined to take possession of the bed in which we were conceived.
		My only sibling is a younger sister, but at that moment, for the first time in my life I was one of three brothers.

		In fact, he was so impressive in that role that the producers of the comedy My Father the Hero took notice and gave him something similar -- a scene where, while in hiding, he feeds poetic lines of love to his daughter as she courts the favor of a reluctant boyfriend.
		I won't dwell overmuch on the numerous implausibilities that occur during the course of My Father the Hero.
		Nevertheless, the greatest flaw in My Father the Hero isn't the feeble laugh-to-running length ratio, the limp characterization, or the mediocre acting.

	My Father, My Hero
		My father waited until my brothers and I were in our early teens before joining William H. Jett Lodge No. 285 in Wenatchee, Washington.
		My middle brother, Lane, is a professional skater and snowboarder, and Dad has taken him many places all over the state, taking photos of him for magazine ads.
		My brother is back to college and playing soccer once again, and I guess you could say my other Masonic heroes are all the people from Blue Lodges all over the state as well as the Scottish Rite, York Rite, Shrine, Amaranth, and Eastern Star members who supported us in our time of need.

		It is a heroic gesture, particularly as most of the rest of North America is probably crushed under a massive snowdrift.
		The urge to surpass oneself for the sake of one's children is usually, sadly, imposed on parents by unforeseen, often tragic, circumstances.
		When parents perform heroic feats, surely it is partly in the hope of restoring that sense of childish wonderment.

		Have you ever wondered what it is like to have a father that is over protective about their little girl's safety.
		Gerard Depardieu plays a father who only wants what is best for his little girl's safety but sometimes goes a little overboard in doing so.
		My Father the Hero shows what it is like having an over protective father and how teens sometimes rebel against them in order for their parents realize that they can take of themselves.

	My Father Is A Hero
		'My Father Is A Hero' is one of the films that established his current reputation and further enhanced his working relationship with action-director maestro Yuen Kwai.
		Foremost among these is the unique relationship between Jet Li and Yee Sing as the father and son protagonists of the film.
		Fans hoping to enjoy an action-packed film will not be disappointed though as 'My Father Is A Hero' provides some adrenalin pumping set-pieces, notably a classic scene where Li takes on a dozen of the villain's lackies with a pair of tonfa.

		Fourteen year old Nicole's parents are divorced and her French father, Andre, is taking her on a tropical vacation to the Bahamas.
		She is at the height of her adolescence and she's anything but excited to be in a place that is filled with "old people" as she puts it to her father.
		Nikki persuades her father into going along with the whole charade, and soon enough, the entire resort finds out and they are absolutely repulsed by the fact that a man of Andre's age has such a young "girlfriend." Hilarious situations and a number of laughs make this movie a winner.

		A WOMAN who spent four years tracing her father's past discovered he was a founder member of the Commandos and died a hero in a famous raid in Norway in the Second World War.
		Her mother said that her father had died at Dunkirk, but Ann's painstaking research eventually showed that he had died in the Vaagso raids on a German-occupied island called Maloy.
		Ann learned that her father, Lance Sergeant Harold Thomas Andrew Povey, was in the Black Watch regiment, but the breakthrough came when she discovered that his name was included on a monument marking the Vaagso raids.

		My Father is a Hero is a rarity among action films -- it has a heart.
		Getting back on topic, My Father is a Hero does fall into melodrama at some points, but it doesn't seem as hammy or heavy-handed as in other films, since there's actually some character development here.
		My only complaint about the action is that there wasn't enough of it.

	‘My Father, the Hero’ (PG)
		Depardieu, an obliging buffoon, is this trifle's salvation as the heroic Andre, appropriately pere-shaped and increasingly put-upon by the child-woman Nicole.
		A loving but neglectful father, Andre hasn't seen Nicole for almost two years when he arrives at his former wife's (Lauren Hutton) Manhattan condo to take the girl on an island vacation.
		Partly to get even and partly to snare the island's only white boy-toy (Dalton James), she spreads the story that Andre is her lover and an international spy masquerading as her dad.

		Embarrassed and unwilling to admit she’s only 14, Nicole makes it known that Andre is her lover, not her father.
		His resume includes directing “Halloween: H20,” “Friday the 13th Part 2 and 3” and producing Wes Craven’s infamous “The Last House on the Left.” I never expected him to take on a comedy, which was sandwiched between two well-known slasher series.
