- Luke EricksonJune 13, 2026Viggo is great in this! This is a fun movie that covers some hard topics. As a dad it makes me reflect on my expectations for my children. Is the bar set too high? I would like to build tough and smart kids but I don't think I have the patience. 😂 I liked the movie, it was worth a watch.
- klit75February 11, 2026Viggo rarely misses and he nailed it again. The man is so good at what he does. You really believe he is the character and Captain Fantastic is no exception. I hadnt even heard of this movie which is too bad because I love the premise. The script adds just the right amount of comedy to subjects that are anything but funny. I liked it a lot!
