Daddy's Home 2 (2017)

While you're not looking, Will Ferrell and Adam McKay as producers are cranking out a lot of pretty decent movies, mainly based on the average white guy (Ferrell) in over his head in the real world.

Case in point:  Daddy's Home 2, where Brad (Will Ferrell) and Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) are 2 men co-parenting children of Sara (Linda Cardellini).   Dusty is divorced from Sara.  Sara is now married to Brad.  Just when they are getting along, more dads show up Don (John Lithgow) and Kurt (Mel Gibson).  Each granddad is a lot alike the son.

A pretty good comedic premise, with a Christmas family theme, quite reminiscent of Christmas Vacation.  John Lithgow steals the show, in my opinion.  And it all end with a Christmas day scene that took a lot of imagination.
