Daddy Day Camp - Movie Trailer
Daddy Day Camp - Official Synopsis
This sequel to Daddy Day Care finds dads Charlie Hinton (Cuba Gooding, Jr.) and Phil Ryerson (Paul Rae) in another zany adventure as they take over running a summer day camp. Armed with no knowledge of the great outdoors, a dilapidated facility, and a motley group of campers, it doesn’t take long before things get out of control.
Up against threats of foreclosure and declining enrollment, Charlie is forced to call on his estranged father, Col Buck Hinton (Richard Gant) to help bring the camp together and teach everyone about teamwork, perseverance and the power of forgiveness.
Daddy Day Camp - Fun Facts
Daddy Day Camp is directed by Fred Savage, and yes, the name is familiar. He is the same Fred Savage that played Kevin on The Wonder Years. Fred has spent the last few years directing a lot of kids' shows that air on the Disney Channel and Nickelodeon among others. In choosing to direct Daddy Day Camp, Savage was impressed by the core message of the film saying, "At the center of the script is really a story about a father-son relationship - both with Ben, who is Charlie’s son, and with Buck, who is Charlie’s father. There is a lot of fun and high jinx, but it’s really about fathers trying to bridge the gap with their sons."
