Just Like Dad
Description
Twelve-year-old Charlie Spiegle (Ben Diskin) has a problem. He's the new kid in school and an easy target for a menacing bully. How can he possibly get a date with the most popular girl in class? If he could only win the school's Father/Son competition, he'd have the popularity he craves. But Charlie's father, Stan Spiegle (Wallace Shawn), is part of the problem. Stan is a bigger nerd than his son! What can Charlie do? Buy a new dad!
Joe (Nick Cassavetes) is the "perfect" candidate. Handsome, strong, a beautiful wife. But Charlie's harmless charade falls apart when Joe's troublesome past with the mob come back back to threaten them both. After Charlie is kidnapped by Joe's former boss (Michael Tucci), Stan and Joe must work together to save "their" son. It will take more than brawn or brains to save him... it will take love just like Dad's.
