Fatherhood is a 2021 American comedy-drama film directed by Paul Weitz from a screenplay by Weitz and Dana Stevens, based on the 2011 memoir Two Kisses for Maddy: A Memoir of Loss and Love by Matthew Logelin. The film stars Kevin Hart, Alfre Woodard, Frankie R. Faison, Lil Rel Howery, DeWanda Wise, Anthony Carrigan, Melody Hurd, and Paul Reiser, and follows a new father who struggles to raise his daughter after the sudden death of his wife.

Originally scheduled to be released in theaters by Sony Pictures Releasing, Fatherhood was sold to Netflix amid the COVID-19 pandemic and was digitally released on June 18, 2021. The film received mixed reviews from critics, although Hart's against-type performance was praised.

While cliched and predictable the movie works thanks to a ton of heart and Hart. While the overall script is what you would expect from this type of movie there are a few quick turnarounds that helps it set apart from usual man-child-raising-a-baby type of movie. Kevin Hart also gives a great performance and for once balances comedy with emotion very well. The supporting cast specially Alfre Woodard is great, special mention to DeWanda Wise who looks great and does well as the love interest.
