Dad's gone Ferrell.

Will Ferrell stars in this film encouraging all of us to spend less time staring at our mobile phones when we should be communing with our families.

By making dad the focal point and by being so darkly funny, the film slips past the defensiveness of younger viewers and stands a chance of making them rethink their own tendency to allow their phones to dominate their inter-actions with the rest of the world.

There are a number of films in the series and each is built around the same conceit... this one is getting a favourable verdict at the 'funny or die' website after it was judged too edgy for other media.
