Critic Reviews

Seattle Post-Intelligencer - Gianni Truzzi

This belabored summertime sequel is moderately less vulgar, certainly less expensive and, if possible, even less funny than its forerunning bomb, "Daddy Day Care." Read full review

TV Guide Magazine - Ken Fox

This terrible sequel to a bad movie was directed by Fred Savage, the now-grown star of "The Wonder Years," though there's no evidence of any behind-the-scenes adult supervision. Read full review

The Hollywood Reporter - Michael Rechtshaffen

Any scrap of charm or honest-to-goodness humor already possessed in limited quantities by the original has been relegated to the outhouse in this sorry follow-up. Read full review

Entertainment Weekly - Gregory Kirschling

Filling in for Eddie Murphy in a septically humored kiddie sequel to "Daddy Day Care," Gooding gives a mug-job performance that consists mainly of reacting (again and again) to nasty smells. Read full review

San Francisco Chronicle - Will Crain

Too predictable, but kids should like it. Read full review

Austin Chronicle - Marjorie Baumgarten

Despite cute kids, tough dads, and problems controlling bed-wetting and farts, Daddy Day Camp should just limp off to the nurse's tent and call it quits. Read full review

Film Threat - Michael Ferraro

Daddy Day Camp is a perfect family film for the blind and deaf. Read full review

It has morals, and humor, but it's missing a screw with it's preceding movie, Daddy Day Care. It does not have the same feel nor does it have Eddie Murphy. Come on! I was going to rate this a 4 but having a different set of actors with the grown-ups doesn't make sense. Just not as good asIt has morals, and humor, but it's missing a screw with it's preceding movie, Daddy Day Care. It does not have the same feel nor does it have Eddie Murphy. Come on!

Has anyone ever squandered the currency of winning an Academy Award more than Cuba Gooding, Jr? (Well, Costner is a close second, with Affleck running third.) Have some discretion, dude!

Basically a bad sequel to an already bad movie.

Don't even bother seeing this terrible, horrifying, botched mass of rotting flesh and maggots, unless you want your eyes to bleed, you ears to be shriveled, and the life sucked out of you.
