This is a fantastic movie. Whoopi Goldberg stars as a widow (Sarah Mathews) who decided to have a child following her husband's death with the help of the sperm bank, so that she will not be lonely. Years later her daughter, Nia Long ( Zora Mathews) discovers that her 'dead father Charlie' was not her father and on further discussion with her mum realizes that she was conceived with the help of the sperm bank. She decides to find her father and owing to a computer mix up, she identifies Hal (Ted Danson's character) as her father. Things were initially tense with all them getting used to the idea of Hal being her dad, with hilarious consequences. Just when they thought they had gotten used to the idea of all them being a family, a new blood test reveals Hal's not the father. Now will he walk away or will he stay and be part of the family he has come to adore?
Great movie, with comical performances from Ted Danson, Whoopi Goldberg, Will Smith and Nia Long and the rest of the supporting cast were great too. This is one DVD the whole family will enjoy.

amazingReview date: 2006-04-02 Rating: 10 out of 10first time i saw this movie was 6 years ago even though the movie came out in the 90s, i could not stop laughing at the situation as it was hilarious. guest stars from will smith was an extra bonus. this movie is soo funny but also an eye opener.
my favourite quote is "don't be made just coz you are white", "...em there is a white man at the door". this qoute will always make me laugh even if i watch this movie in 10 years time. this is a must have in any collection.SUCH A FUNNY FILM!!!Review date: 2005-04-25 Rating: 10 out of 10This is one of the funniest films I have watched ever. Goldberg and Danson have a good on screen chemistry which is both funny and believable. Also Will Smith is very funny playing a camp straight guy. The film is essentially about a daughter who finds out that the person she thought was her dad was not and her actual dad was from a sperm bank and she goes and finds him with hilarious consequences. Definitely a film that you have to see at least once!!!Whoopi Goldberg at her Best!Review date: 2001-05-05 Rating: 8 out of 10I think made in america is one of the best films ever.
