The Pacifier

B-
Brad Garrett in a wrestling singlet? Hilarious! Vin Diesel as a badass turned babysitter? Not so much. But in the cinematic wasteland known as winter, beggars can't be choosers. So, The Pacifier provides passable, albeit predictable, family fare sure to please the kids without forcing their adult counterparts to whine like babies. XXX goes PG as an overly disciplined Navy SEAL assigned to protect the unruly children of an assassinated scientist while looking for his missing top-secret project. But that's just a reason to have Diesel become a den mother, deal with dirty diapers and that darn trailer-stealing but unfairly marginalized duck. It's all very late-'80s Arnold Schwarzenegger, predictable and harmless and should pacify moviegoers who don't expect too much--at least until their next feeding.
