At a time when Landsman already released six parts in the "Diary of a Modern Dad" series, it is no wonder that his fatherly stories are the subject of the feature debut of another promising personality of the popular Czech scene. With its introduction, it doesn't sound very appealing, and the casting of Mádl and Voříšková is also not surprising, but at least of the films Mádl has made recently (such as Waking Up Yesterday or Celebrity Ltd.), Diary of a Modern Dad is the more bearable of the bunch.

Diary of a Modern Dad features a likeable cast, believable performances, and an all-around enjoyable execution that counteracts the pervasive predictability of the plot and character development. Tereza Ramba was great, Jiří Mádl on the other hand looked helpless way too frequently, and the parents and ex-boyfriend were fine. I was quite taken with the idea of stuffed animals and a tape recorder - a decent ad for a toy company. I believe parents will enjoy the film all the more because, unlike childless people (like myself), they have experienced or are currently experiencing this. Better three stars! (2021.09.26)

A few essential pieces of information at the beginning. Jiří Mádl sits well with me as a director, but as an actor, I don't particularly like Mádl. I'm not very fond of movies with children (especially with the fresh ones). Despite these considerable objections, the film didn't repel me in any way, although it is true that I didn't end up laughing properly throughout the entire time. It managed to evoke occasional amusement from me, but even so, it worked quite well until it came to the final burst of sudden romance. The conclusion was processed in the style of American romantic comedies, and I really don't like that. Today, I felt quite benevolent and considered giving it three stars, but the ending was enough to lower it to just two pieces. (2022.01.04)

An enjoyable Czech family comedy, and one of the best been made in the country in recent times. It’s not as good as Waking Up Yesterday, but definitely better than average. The humour is good, Jiří Mádl and Tereza Ramba are a great duo and it has a very feel-good atmosphere. I had fun. 75% . (2021.11.21)

The Diary of a Self-pitying Dad. I’m not immune to that perspective, but without the high fevers, laryngitis, and similar delights, the described baby doom around the muddy little monkey feels as forced as the transition into a romantic comedy in the American style. I’ve never been fond of Mádl’s arrogant acting, but I’d like to see his character in about fifteen years in a sequel, when his offspring will only figuratively be giving him hell. He’ll then look back on the old infernos with a nostalgic tear in his eye. (2022.11.21)
