Jack Lawrence est un brillant avocat. Dale Putley un auteur dépressif. Leur seul point commun : avoir eu la même petite amie, Colette, il y a dix-sept ans. Pour retrouver son fils, en pleine fugue, Colette est prête à tout. C'est ainsi qu'elle révèle à chacun d'eux qu'il est le père de son enfant et les persuade de partir à sa recherche. Une révélation qui chamboule leur vie et les plonge dans une aventure aux multiples rebondissements... (texte officiel du distributeur)

This comedy, which is a remake of a French film, tries to say a lot, and it wants to take the audience to various places, but what happens simply isn't as interesting as one would wish. Billy Crystal and Robin Williams are probably a good team, but here their humor just didn't work. Their characters weren't funny to me, even though they were supposedly the funniest part of the whole movie. That's sad enough in itself.

Hollywood remakes of French films are mostly crap, that’s a well known fact, and Father’s Day is no exception. The humour is lost, replaced by awkwardness and hamminess. Billy Crystal is boring Robin Williams embarrassing.

Compared to the French original, this is nothing. You laugh a few times and have a relatively decent time (thanks to the great actors), but compared to the original it's really weak.
