First Kid (1996) - ALL2 DISNEY REVIEW
Download MP3In this episode of All2ReelToo’s ALL2 DISNEY REVIEW, we’re revisiting the ‘90s family comedy First Kid—but this isn’t just a nostalgic watch.
We break down the film’s story of a former boxer-turned-Secret Service agent tasked with protecting the President’s rebellious son… a job that quickly turns into chaos, comedy, and unexpected heart. From pranks to life lessons, it’s a classic setup with that signature Disney charm.
But we also go deeper—because revisiting this movie today comes with a more complicated lens. We address the real-world controversies and troubling connections tied to some of the film’s cast, including links to figures like Jeffrey Epstein, as well as allegations involving sexual assault and domestic violence. Listener discretion is advised for this episode. You may want to skip it if this triggers you emotionally.
Starring Sinbad, Brock Pierce, Robert Guillaume, Timothy Busfield, Zachery Ty Bryan, Bill Cobbs, and featuring appearances by Sonny Bono and Bill Clinton.
🎧 Tune in as we balance the fun of a throwback favorite with an honest conversation about its legacy.
