***Spoilers Ahead, Most Definitely*** I bought this movie because it was only $1 on VHS at the thrift store.I wasn't expecting all that much to be honest with you but I enjoyed First Kid WAY more than I ever expected to.First Kid was a great movie, it was worth the $1 & then some.I can't think of 1 complaint I had with it.They goofed when Luke was on house arrest.Instead of putting the bracelet on his ankle, they put it on his wrist.Not a complaint, just something I noticed & found weird.I wonder if it was done on purpose or what? I wish I knew why they did that.Another thing I found weird/strange is the shooting at the end.This is the 1st Disney movie I've seen where somebody gets shot.Anyways....... I don't have any particular favorite part of the movie that stands out for me because I enjoyed First Kid from start to finish.Sinbad & Brock Pierce worked well together.In fact, the whole movie worked.It's a very heartwarming movie that you can enjoy by yourself or together with the whole family.I'f you ever get a chance to watch it, check it out.I got a copy of First Kid on VHS & now I want it on DVD as well

First Kid (1996): Dir: David Mickey Evans / Cast: Sinbad, Brock Pierce, Timothy Busfield, Blake Boyd, James Naughton: Part family film and part really bad skit. Sinbad plays secret agent Sam Simms assigned to protect the President's son. With his wild ties and sense of humour he attempts to win the boy over. After failing attempts he decides to teach the kid how to box, dance and ask out girls. The only thing he left out is teaching the screenwriter how to write a decent story. Simple plot travels formula with little or nothing original to be found. It is disturbing how the villain got to his current state. Director David Mickey Evans does what he can with the cardboard material but he is dealing with recycled nonsense. Sinbad is basically reduced to formula doing everything expected. Brock Pierce is hardly likable as the kid. In fact had he not been such a snot nose brat then none of this would have happened. Timothy Busfield plays a former bodyguard who is mistreated by this miserable brat. Blake Boyd provides no personality as the President. He is played by James Naughton and is the basic father who is absent but learns lessons of fatherhood by the conclusion. What a total crock. Film supposedly stresses the importance of good adult role models but comes off as a juvenile James Bond that should be locked away and never heard from again. Score: 1 / 10

I am not a big fan of Sinbad's movies, but he made me laugh more than once in this movie. I recommend it to people of all ages! The other actors are OK, but it has a good plot and strong ending. Don't let the Disney fool you. I think that this is one of the best childrens movies I have seen lately.

I thought I'd stumbled upon another cheesy movie. But no, this is one of the good ones. As a matter of fact, I'm surprised why it's getting such a low rating.Sam Simms (Sinbad) is hired to be the personal Secret Service agent of the President's son Luke Davenport (Brock Pierce), after the current agent got fired. No wonder, too, because Luke is a pain in the neck who pulls all kinds of stunts and practical jokes - for fun or for attention? You'll find out.Sinbad and Brock Pierce work wonderfully together, and the scenes with the two of them are good. The scenes with them and Dash (Blake Boyd) are even better. I must say that I particularly liked Dash's (however brief) dancing outside the school hall - seem familiar? Oh, yes.They could have left out the kidnapping plot, but it does make for an interesting addition.A great movie. Worth the rental.
