Kristne Bell and Dax Shepherd got unfiltered feedback from their daughters on their 2012 film, Hit & Run.
During a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!the Idiocracy star revealed that Lincoln, 12, and Delta, 10, watched the film and were shocked to see Bell’s character break up with hers.
“They were very upset,” he recounted their children’s quick and brutally honest reaction. “and what made me so happy is that they were mad at mom, not me. They thought mom was a b—h. They thought dad was a good boy with a bad past, and she should be able to see that, and I agree.”
Bell, who sat next to her partner on the November 28 episode, laughed off the criticism.
She noted that the kids ended up liking the movie.
“We spent all that time making this independent film and Daddy wrote it and directed it and they said, ‘We want to see it,'” Dax continued.
“And we hadn’t seen it in ages. We’re like, ‘OK, let’s see it with you.’ They loved it. It is very inappropriate. And it was a big litmus test for our kids.”
