5 great Movie Dads!

To celebrate Father's Day this Sunday I've decided to select 5 fathers that have graced the big screen over the years! Feel free to add your own suggestions in the comment box below or via social media!


5. Clark Griswold (National Lampoon's Vacation)
The original goofy dad! Chevy Chase made this character his own in a series of ever popular films that saw this father do just about anything for his family often with embarrassing and hilarious results!



4.Mufasa (The Lion King)
The perfect combination of powerful and compassionate leader Mufasa (voiced by the unmistakable) James Earl Jones was also a playful and loving father who made the ultimate sacrifice in giving his life to save him!


3. Jim's Dad  (American Pie)
Aside of some really inappropriate and slightly uncomfortable sex education lessons, Jim's Dad (played superbly by Eugene Levy) was also willing to do anything for his son and was always firmly in his corner with love and support!



2.Bryan Mills (Taken
The sensitive, compassionate dad is always needed but sometimes the kick ass father as played by Liam Neeson in the Taken series is welcome to. Bargaining is just not in this Dad's vocabulary as he will stop at nothing to bring justice to those who harm his family!


1. Mac MaGuff (Juno)
The modern well adjusted father comes in the shape of Mac Maguff (played magnificently by J.K.Simmons) who reacts to his teenage daughter Juno's teenage pregnancy with compassion, support and understanding and he becomes his teenage daughter's rock!
