The real review

The Breadwinner mostly gets panned, with critics calling its story painfully unoriginal and the jokes falling flat. Nate Bargatze as the overwhelmed stay-at-home dad Nate Wilcox is the only thing that lands with any consistency, while Mandy Moore's Katie is largely forgotten. The premise of a dad fending for his family while his wife is away just reads as a tired retread, and the low scores for humor and story show where the film completely loses its audience.
