Over the holidays| Ned| an overprotective but loving dad and his family visit his daughter at Stanford| where he meets his biggest nightmare: her well-meaning but
socially awkward Silicon Valley millionaire boyfriend| Laird. The rivalry develops|and Ned's panic level goes through the roof when he finds himself lost in this
glamorous high-tech world and learns that Laird is about to pop the question.


Solidly cast but overall misconceived, Why Him? offers the odd chuckle, but ultimately adds disappointingly little to its tired father-vs.-fiancé formula.
