Movie Info

It was a bachelor's life for hard-working and fun-loving Ray Ray Dominguez (Joey Dedio) who dreams of leaving the barrio for a more carefree existence in Miami. That's until one day when everything changed - and he became a reluctant "Tio Papi" aka Uncle Daddy to his sister's six children ages six to 16. Now, in charge of raising this energetic (and expensive) clan, Ray Ray must make important decisions on what life really is all about. Combining heart-warming drama with light-hearted comedy, TIO PAPI, directed by Fro Rojas from the original screenplay by Joey Dedio and Brian Herskowitz, is an upbeat story of life's unexpected surprises and ultimately what matters the most - the love of family.

[A] well-photographed, lively and lightly comic film.

[a] by-the-numbers feel good story

Dedio undoubtedly wrote Ray Ray as a star turn, but the character is so forcefully written to be likable - in this case, as a nebulously defined everyman - that he never feels human enough to empathize with.

Los Angeles Times
Top Critic

Doesn't try to be anything more than a soft-serve pull of treacly pandering.

Village Voice
Top Critic

Bittersweet family comedy involves parental loss.

Sep 11, 2013 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
Common Sense Media

Too predictable for adults and too saccharine for even very young kids, this family-oriented comedy is strictly dullsville.
