Aidan Bloom, a struggling actor, father and husband, is 35 years old and still trying to find a purpose for his life. He and his wife are barely getting by financially and Aidan passes his time by fantasizing about being the great futuristic Space-Knight he'd always dreamed he'd be as a little kid. When his ailing father can no longer afford to pay for private school for his two kids and the only available public school is on its last legs, Aidan reluctantly agrees to attempt to home-school them. Through teaching them about life his way, Aidan gradually discovers some of the parts of himself he couldn't find.

31/100 just a bland movie that tries so hard to be emotional and deep but ends up being only pathetic. every single character is annoying and underdeveloped and some scenes felt like just a cheap ad.

I think this movie is very funny and has a very big cast. I only clicked on this movie because I knew that the actor who plays Sheldon in the Big Bang theory was in this movie and I wanted to see if he would play relatively the same role or a different role and his character was different almost like a normal guy.
