ridiculous rating

Let's be realistic.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

... you're familiar with the early 1990's and the non-Vietnam pre-Watergate 1970's and especially the Brady Bunch , you'll think it's a great parody of that era. Otherwise it's hard to really get much from the movie especially the original cast cameos. I give it 8 stars based on what the movie does in making a parody of its source material.

If you gonna make a movie out of a t.v. comedy hit, this is how you're gonna do it. Brady fan, or non Brady fan, you'll get many a laugh out of this lightheaded comedy, that really stays true to the show, coupled with great imitative performances, that does the same (Shelley Long is amazing, as is Garry Cole, almost as good) while the kids really bestow such talented performances, you keep having to remind yourself, the are not the real Brady's from the show. Familiar incidents, songs, habits, whatever, are wonderfully mocked in such an entertaining film, where we meet some old Brady's in cameo bits, a sad reminder, all these actors didn't go far, after. Michael Mckeon as the scheming, Brady hating neighbor, trying to run them out of their house, for business reasons, is indeed a pleasure to watch, while wifie is an alcoholic, sex starved, seductive lover. Of course, as we know, with the Brady's, good triumphs over bad. The Greg Brady in this though, surprisingly, turns girls off. Every Brady is as good as the next, though really, Long is unbelievably great, totally mirroring the late Flo Henderson, who just recently passed. I've never seen another comedy movie, that stays more loyal to it's t.v. show, than this one, you'll feel in Brady world all over again. Spend a Brady night in with this one. You won't regret it. A hit, with a great opening beaty score. What a unique bunch.

I kept seeing clips of this movie from tumblr and I thought they were pretty hilarious so I thought I would check out the movie. I have no knowledge of the TV series, nor would I be interested in it but despite not knowing the show, the movie is awesome, kinda. Of course, there are some problems, 1. it's dated, 2. the acting is terrible 3. some of the characters are really dull 4. the plot is so thin and predictable 5. some of the subplots are really stupid. The whole subplot of where the younger sister is always being a nark, it gets kind of old...okay, so there are a lot of problems but I enjoyed it. The best parts of the whole movie is with Jan; her reaction with the voices in side her head and always against Marsha...it's definitely interesting to watch. sadly, Jan maybe the only related character; outcast with sibling rivalry dealing with her insecurities. The other characters are just too...out there...If you're bored and looking for something that will have your attention, this is a movie to watch. It has some goods parts that are worth viewing.

This movie was really one of the first spoof movies that took an old show and put it into the modern age while at the same time lampooning it's more innocent and serious namesake. The movie is of course aboutt the Bradys, the 70's favorite family. The one bathroom sharing, wood paneled station wagon driving, ahh shucks and golly saying clan are looked at by modern society as harmless, yet out of their minds or completely oblivious of their own out of date style and personalities. This coupled with the cameos from former members of the original show along with other stars makes for some pretty entertaining laughs. All in all the comedy is often taking a stab at the cheesiness of the original but at the same time letting the Bradys have the last laugh and showing our modern day society's flaws in the meantime. If you haven't seen the first movie it's also pretty funny but the stories don't connect so it's not important which u see first. If you enjoy films such as "Starsky and Hutch" or "Charlie's Angels" then u will probably dig this. Check it out for yourself and Alice will set a place at the table for ya.
