I just finished this a couple days ago too. I didn't know Gerald Butler was so poorly viewed before watching this. I think this is the first movie I've ever seen him in and he played the dad role perfectly I thought. I enjoyed it.
The only part that bugged me was once he's in the evacuation centre and has to go back to the car with the mob outside. He's like "It's alright I've got a wristband!" It's like he's at a festival and just needs to step outside quick for a smoke break or something.
