Personal Review

Okay, ‘Mr. Nanny’ isn’t high art, but I loved it as a kid! Seeing Hulk Hogan try to handle those bratty kids was hilarious. Sure, the plot is cheesy, and the acting is… well, it’s Hulk Hogan. But there’s a certain charm to the over-the-top antics and the 90s nostalgia. The scene where he dresses up in a tutu? Classic! It’s the kind of movie that just makes you smile and not think too hard.

Professional Reviews

• Common Sense Media: “Mr. Nanny offers some chuckles, but ultimately it’s a predictable and formulaic family comedy. Hulk Hogan’s presence provides some entertainment, but the film relies too heavily on slapstick humor and lacks depth.

Audience Reactions
