[edit] Plot

Charlie (John Travolta) and Dan (Robin Williams) are best friends and co-workers who have no clue about the importance of family or what life is truly about. Dan's ex-wife, Vicki (Kelly Preston), shows up after a long period of time and reveals that she and Dan have seven-year-old twins: a son and a daughter. Dan recruits Charlie and together they take care of the twins and a dog. With help from a co-worker, Ralph (Seth Green), they go from outdoor activities with the kids and a rough instructor, Yancy Devlin (Matt Dillon), to enduring a flamboyant children's entertainer, Jimmy Lunchbox (Bernie Mac), and eventually they will learn the true meaning of life and family.
