Stand N' Watch

What is a Dad Movie? It's unquantifable but you know one when you see it, usually because your dad is watching it while standing in front of the TV. Each episode, self-proclaimed movie expert Matt, and self-proclaimed father Nick take a look at a different movie to determine just how "Dad" it is.
