adonis98-743-186503 A former professional wrestler is hired to be the bodyguard/nanny for a couple of bratty kids whose inventor father is being stalked by a rival. Mr. Nanny is kind of a 'Kindergarten Cop' rip-off without the whole school and kindergarten thing. This movie was very much embarrasing to watch or even to enjoy as a whole. Hulk Hogan is not the type of "actor" i'd use for a role like this since he can't act at all and as i've said before he belongs on the ring and not on the big screen. The little kids were annoying and the whole premise fall flat. Just skip this one too. (0/10)
Minahzur Rahman I remember watching this movie as a kid, and I found it to be a good and fun movie. Rewatching this reminds me how good the 90s actually was; if only I could turn back the clock. We all should know how great and popular wrestling was back in the 90s especially with the Monday night wars between the WWF and WCW. But we should also remember that some wrestlers were involved outside of the wrestling world, and fine-tuned their fighting skills into the movie business, and one of them was the iconic - Hulk Hogan! Personally, he was my favourite wrestler back in the day, and probably most others would agree as well, so as a kid, you would sort of be excited he'll be starring in movies, and we all think of Hulk as the good guy. As a kid, I thought of Hulk as the unstoppable guy, and he was pretty much the unstoppable guy. The movie was fun. It shouldn't be taken to seriously as that was not its purpose. I only like it mainly because Hulk was in this movie, and he's one of my favourite wrestlers ever (top 10). I'm not so sure if too many people know about this movie including wrestling fans. There haven't been many reviews here either.
guyfromjerzee I caught this movie on HBO early morning one day, so I decided to give it a look. My opinion of the movie has definitely faltered since I watched it back in grade school, but at the same time it maintained my interest for the entire hour and a half. To be fair, a goofy comedy like this is aimed primarily towards children. That is not "totally" an excuse, but you can't view this movie in the same way you'd view "Citizen Kane." Hulk Hogan is no great actor. He can't even bump his head on a kitchen cabinet convincingly. But as mediocre as his talent is, he is somewhat fun to watch. It wouldn't be as funny to see an actor half his size in a ballerina outfit. But Hulkster doesn't give the worst performance. The film's weakest link is the disgustingly over-the-top performance by Buster Poindexter's David Johansen. It's no mystery why he's box office poison (i.e.: "Car 54, Where Are You," "Freejack"). Sherman Helmsley is completely over-the-top as well, but at least he provides some funny moments. Most of the jokes are lame and predictable, but if you're looking for mindless family fun, you can do a lot worse than "Mr. Nanny." But I enjoyed "Suburban Commando" a lot more. At least in that movie, the Hulkster had a talented actor like Christopher Lloyd to feed off.
mezi304 I used to hire this movie every time I went to the video store with my mum when i was eight years old. I used to think 'the Pit of Blood' who be fun to swim in and the magnetic weights were funny. I did not know hulk Hogan I just thought he was a really really big man. But I loved it when I was little, even the villain was funny to an extent.But now eleven years later I watched it again. Funny how you remember what the lines were and the music lyrics in that long time. It brought back memories but sadly I now saw how weak it was in some areas; especially the stunts. How ever if you do not watch it critically and enjoy the humour I think anyone can enjoy it.What really amazed me was little Madeline Zima's acting; she was not excellent but I thought she gave a great effort in fact she reminded me of me when I was a little girl. How many times had I screamed at my brother to get what I want.Overall it is a weak movie but keep an open mind, it was made in the early nineties, also what Hulk Hogan gets up to with Madeline I think is priceless. How often do you see a wrestler in a tutu with curly hair in ribbons.
