Why Him?

  • Log in or register to post comments

The story revolves around Ned Fleming, a overprotective father who lives a quiet life as the owner of a printing shop in Michigan. Everything changes when his teenage daughter, Stephanie, decides to introduce her new boyfriend, a tech billionaire named Laird Mayhew, who is everything Ned could never have imagined for his daughter. Laird is extravagant, uninhibited, and has a personality that Ned finds difficult to tolerate. The first family meeting turns into a complete disaster: Laird is unusually enthusiastic and has no filter, which makes Ned increasingly uncomfortable and anxious to defend his family's reputation.

As the encounters between the two men become more frequent, Ned tries to sabotage Stephanie and Laird's relationship in unorthodox ways. However, Ned's attempts only lead to hilarious and disastrous situations. What starts as a conflict of interest evolves into an unexpected journey where both characters discover more than they believe they know about themselves and what it means to be a family.

The film is an uninhibited comedy full of absurd moments, where the clash between traditional values and a modern, unrestrained lifestyle becomes a battlefield of laughter and chaos. As the two men vie for Stephanie's approval, love and loyalty are put to the test, showing that sometimes, acceptance and understanding are more powerful than any conflict.
