I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
... View MoreIf you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
... View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
... View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
... View MoreWidow Dennis Quaid (as Frank Beardsley) meets widower Rene Russo (as Helen North) just before their high school reunion. Eighteen children and twenty-five years ago, they were sweethearts. They instantly marry, robbing this "Yours, Mine and Ours" (1968) re-make of the sweet and funny courtship scenes played by Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda.Filmmakers update it by making six of Ms. Russo's children adopted (different ethnicities). An update might be interesting if some of the Beardsley-North children hooked up. But they dislike each other, have water fights, and spill paint. They plot to break-up their happily married parents. The family's pet pig gives Mr. Quaid a wet kiss. It's that funny.*** Yours, Mine & Ours (11/23/05) Raja Gosnell ~ Dennis Quaid, Rene Russo, Sean Faris, Danielle Panabaker
... View MoreI found this film funny and a good time. There were a couple points that I thought weren't really suited to this leading man (Quaid), but other than that, the acting was great.I could feel chemistry between 'Mom & Dad' and also the tension between them. The kids also did a great job making the tension real as well as the affection they later have for each other (which we all knew was going to happen, but I'm not bothered by this sort of predictability as most films have many predictable moments and the ones that strive too hard to avoid it usually end up unsatisfying).Although I can't imagine a situation like theirs ever being successful in real life (two large, but vastly different families coming together), this film does very well in making you forget that just for a while.It's a clean film suitable for anybody. The charm, the characters, the story, the chemistry, the hijinks; all worthwhile reasons to watch this one.
... View MoreYours, Mine and Ours is a romantic-family comedy that brings all the already-seen jokes in movie history. Rene Russo is very badly cast, as she was already made for Jennifer Coolige's roles (like Fiona, in A Cinderella Story), and her face lacks the artsy-motherly face for Hellen White. The script was very lousy, the kids spoke our of turn, and the story was a great story, but the script ruined it all, as did Rene Russo. Sound effects snap the reality in half, not even a four-year-old can believe it. Raja Gosnell-once in for all, he proofs he could do a lot better, if he had better casting ability, and did choose amateur's to write the script.
... View MoreThis movie was excellent, it one of very few family movies that are suitable for all ages. Many people say they didn't like it, and gave it bad ratings probably because, there's no sexual humor or sex scenes. These days, If there's sex in a movie, then that makes it interesting and good. Hardly anyone understands that family movies are for families, they're not meant to be nasty to watch, it should be enjoyable for everyone. Movies can be great without that garbage. The humor was good and you can really feel the compassion in this movie. Its great for kids. I loved the way things happened, like the physical humor and the kid actors/actresses were so adorable. The only thing I didn't like about it was the fight over a boy that the two older girls had. I think it was stupid and unnecessary. Drake Bell did a really good job on his part. He was witty and full of drama with the different situations throughout the movie. Everyone did a great job. I give it a 8 out of 10.
