Single father Monty (Idris Elba) is a mechanic who lives in a poor neighborhood and struggles to make ends meet as he raises his three young daughters on his own in “Daddy’s Little Girls,” opening today without screenings for reviewers. When the court awards custody of his daughters to his corrupt, drug-dealing ex-wife, Monty desperately tries to win them back, enlisting the help of Julia (Gabrielle Union), an attorney he meets during a short stint as a chauffeur. While Monty and Julia couldn’t be less alike, an unexpected romance blossoms. But in order for their relationship to survive, the couple must reconcile their different worlds – and overcome the forces that threaten to tear Monty’s family apart. Written and directed by Tyler Perry (Madea’s Family Reunion), the film is rated PG-13 for thematic material, drug and sexual content, some violence and language. It opens today at Alderwood Mall, Everett, Marysville, Meridian, Woodinville and Cascade Mall.
