A generation gap farce with a sterling cast of comic leads, Andy Fickman’s Parental Guidance covers all of the familiar and expected territory in a story involving differing views about parenting between parents and grandparents. That’s not to say that there aren’t funny lines or some effective comic business to be found here (and there’s a hefty dose of sentiment to end with as well), but it’s all by-the-numbers with not a fresh idea in sight.
