“The Breadwinner,” a family comedy starring stand-up comedian Nate Bargatze in his feature film debut, is being met with some not-so-fresh-reviews from Rotten Tomatoes critics.

Directed by Eric Appel, Nate Bargatze’s 'Mr. Mom' update 'The Breadwinner' offers a few opportunities to chuckle, but the gags mostly fall flat.

"The Breadwinner," in theaters Friday, is a safe mainstream comedy with no edge, but even that is enough of a rarity to enhance its appeal.
