Man of the House (DVD, 2005)

The straight man pulls it off again! The hardened synic pulled it off perfectly! Great plot,funny,and romantic all together wrapped up in a nice little package. Didn't like the foul language or swearing."Swearing and foul language does NOT show intelligence but a lack there of", a very limited vocabulary.

I thought I had rented the movie Man Of The House starring Chevy Chase and JTT but i was sadly mistaken. 90 Minutes later and the misery is over.

Man of the House is a 2005 comedy crime film starring Tommy Lee Jones as a Texas Ranger. This is one of the funninest comedy movies I have watch. Tommy Lee Jones is Sharp who is given the thankless task protecting a group of cheerleaders, who have witnessed a murder. Sharp moves in with the girls and the two young FBI men with him move into the fraternity house across the street, where they end up busting a drug deal. Sharp sets some ground rules, including no cell phones. He also tells them to "cover up in his presence" referring to the girls' revealing clothes. When they refuse, he orders an air conditioner, forcing them to dress warmly. Sharp is posing as a cheerleading coach specializing in conditioning, and at a football game he tackles an opposing team's mascot when the mascot approaches the girls with a gun, later revealed to be a water gun. Other humorous mishaps occur (I’m not telling) but Sharp's relationship with the girls begins to strengthen. Much of the movie was shot in Austin, Texas on the University of Texas campus. Texas Governor Rick Perry has a cameo appearance in the film as himself. The movie is rated PG-13 for violence, sexual content, crude humor, and a drug reference.

I love this movie. This is probably one of the best comedies that I have seen. It has a little bit of romance, humor, and action/violence. This movie is about a cop who has to watch/baby-sit five teenage cheerleaders who witnessed a gangster murder. It is a very hard task since the only thing that all the girls want to do is go out and PARTY instead of staying in the house. This movie kept me laughing the entire time. But I do enjoy the ending when the five cheerleaders help Tommy Lee Jones reunite with his daughter. I would definitely recommend this movie to everyone, especially the women, but I do think that this movie is definitely a chick flick.

Man of the House

This is another one of those films I thought I was going to hate... thank god for Epic Movie, it has allowed me laugh at films I would've never found funny.

Tommy Lee Jones is incredibly funny and the cheerleaders are hot. What more can you ask for???

Final Verdict?:

4/5

Worth Buying?: Definitely worth buying for Boys and Girls (and for different reasons)

Tommy Lee Jones as a Texas Ranger. Then add five high-strung cheerleaders. Funny and yet on the edge. When the cheerleaders witness a killing he is assigned to protect them. Of course they fight him along the way. One cheerleader develops a crush on him. Another becomes a friend while the other 3 just try to put up with him. When he has a date they all pitch in and help him to get the lady. The killer finds out about the witnesses and he tries every way to get at them. Watch this to find out how this ends.

If you are looking for a relatively family friendly movie that is just fun to watch and doesn't require much thought, this is a good choice. The movie has lots to offer, humor, light action, italian-style western bravado (ala Texas Ranger) and big name actors. Cedric was funny and Tommy Lee actually smiles a few times. I liked it, good to take your mind off the problems of the world for an hour and a half, and isn't that a good reason to watch a movie? A few spots of mild profanity.

I never received this dvd from the seller. Bad seller and I told EBAY so....I had to go to Walmart to buy the product. It is a good DVD but not from EBAY...wasted about 12.00 and got nothing. Johnny and Janie Rogers

I seen it advertised and it looked good so I bought it.My husband and I thought it was a very funny movie. We loved it.

Enjoyed this movie so much. Just hit my funny bone. Tommy Lee Jones is great in a comic role. His deadpan expression when he delivers the funniest lines made me laugh outloud. The girls were good too played up superbly with Jones's character. Wish there were more movies like this one. Bought it because the jacket blurb sounded good.

i love this kine of movies and u think everyone should go out and get this movies and i love everything about this movies

Thank goodness I was able to replace this CD that was removed from my apartment without my permission, for less than what I originally paid for it.
Thanks for being on E-BAY!

we liked this movie, it makes you laugh, the cheerleaders could wear a little longer clothes, but for cheerleaders there probably dressed good, I liked it because in order to fit in he had to do things that they did, and that's what makes it funny, hope you enjoy watching it to, good actor's

This is a great movie some thing you can see over and over Funny and action all in one one of Tommy's best movies

What's not to love? Tommy Lee Jones is a Texas Ranger, charged with protecting a group of college cheerleaders who witnessed a vicious crime. He teaches them the value of vigilance and clothing. They teach him the value of spirit and putting your best foot forward. A fun movie, I highly recommend it!

I just happen to like fast and immediate results after I pay for the item and this seller surely up to my standards. My wife really got amazed at how fast the whole process evolved. I was also happy.
Thanks and Merry Christmas to all who were unvolved.

my husband saw the previews on another movie and he said it looked funny and if i would see if i could find it on ebay and order it for him so i did and it is a really funny movie we really injoyed it and it made it so much earier to be able to look movies up on ebay when we see it like that this way we wont forget and i only have tpo go to the computer not to all different stores to find the movie

This movie is funny, witty and heartwarming :) I would recommend it to anyone. Makes a great Christmas gift. Fans of Undeclared will be happy to see Monica Keena

Remember Tommy Lee Jones? I sure do! The Missing, The Fugitive, Blue Sky, Coal Miner's Daughter, JFK - heck, even Men in Black. Tommy Lee Jones is the best silent/cynical/sarcastic tough guy who actually has a sense of humor in Hollywood. So why is he in this movie?

The premise has been done many, many times before - group of girls witness a murder and he is in charge of protecting them until the guy is caught. Lots of giggling and lessons learned. he learns how to relate to his daughter and the girls learn responsibility.

Good if you have nothing to watch on a rainy Saturday afternoon but for that watching something with some substance or for funny/sarcastic Tommy Lee watch Men in Black.

Great Movie, I love Cedric the Entertainer and Tommy Lee Jones. Action and Comedy, a great combination.
