Three bachelors, who have never before fed, diapered or cared for an infant, find themselves in possession of a baby girl whose mother -- a former girlfriend of one of the trio -- unexpectedly dumps her with them. Unfortunately, figuring out exactly what to do with tiny, helpless creature doesn't come easy for the men, as they bungle, stumble and make a generally comical mess of the job. But as they gradually uncover the mysteries of child-rearing, they discover how much fun it can be... and how easily a sweet baby girl can worm her way into your heart. [More]

Reviews for 3 Men and a Cradle
It went down well in 1985, and it's entertaining enough today, but it never really escapes being a comic rehash of the often-filmed western drama Three Godfathers.
