Man vs Baby MINI-Review
Man vs Baby is the light-hearted, sometimes funny, always well-meaning Christmas special that we’ve been waiting years for… almost. The always delightful Rowan Atkinson is charming as a divorcee house sitter. Unfortunately, that’s where the mini-series tops out.
What, at first blush, appears to be a heartwarming Christmas tale about learning what’s truly important in life ends up as a rather uninspired, one-note comedy of errors that repeats the same gag in every episode—a never-ending series of gags, setups, and easy solutions. It’s a pleasant enough distraction, but little more than that.
