SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Robert Joyner The 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

dnadiyah I desperately watch each new sitcom in the hopes of discovering something that can fill the Friends sized hole in my heart. Or maybe another Seinfeld or even a That 70s Show. Even though it's a long shot I watch at least 5 episodes to get past that teething point just in case it's a good comedy that's started shakily. With this show, I couldn't even get past two episodes and, even then, it was hard work. Thoroughly predictable writing (who hadn't guessed the Grandmother was in the drawing and not the mom, two seconds after the premise was revealed). This is so pathetic I feel sorry for the actors who have, in the past, been in some top notch stuff. A lot of comedies fall below mediocre. Your Family or Mine is worse than mediocre.. it is just thoroughly, thoroughly bad and this show deserves being cancelled. However, knowing how mediocrity is celebrated in the States this will probably run for nine seasons and syndication.
scinema Jobeth Williams, Richard Dreyfuss, Cynthia Stevenson, and Ed Begly Jr. They are the only reason this show keeps anyone coming back. Not hard to see why. They're seasoned actors that carry us through each formulaic episode order. This show in particular has an every-other-episode way about it.Every other episode features Williams and Dreyfuss, or Stevenson and Begly Jr. Our two main characters (Kyle Howard, Kat Foster) are a loving couple, with two kids, and probably a nice little house, white picket fence, etc. They spend each episode at either parent's house where off-the-wall issues ensue. Premise is promising. The trials and tribulations that a couple have to endure as they work through the differences and culture clash of the parents they're visiting. Each episode feature's the other side of the family. This is common ground that any married couple will have to deal with, so it's a relatively approachable and identifiable status. No big deal, except that the writing (ie-punch lines, gag response et al) are a little too predictable in this day and age. We've seen it all before. ing siblings (brothers sisters) are easy to pin-point. Sibling rivalry's and difference of opinion seems to be the ONLY arc that comes forth in any given episodic visit. The aforementioned four Parental units are often relegated to modern day lingo complete with swearing, sex humor, and often falling to the same cliché'd behavior as the younger characters. Perhaps this is because they are marketing it for the unfortunate younger demographic, as just about any and every network, production co. and media format seems to do. Shame. Next there is the acting itself. Our two main cast Kyle Howard and Kat Foster are enthusiastic but amateur in their portrayals. You'd see the same thing in a standard high school or college production. They give it there best shots every episode and some of it can be adorable at best, but it always pales in comparison to the ing players. In fact, all the ing players who feature in every other episode are far more interesting and the cast entertaining. Some new direction and writing might clean this up, maybe. The goods surely come from said parental actors. The issue's that come with a non-original member of either family are not unfamiliar but that way either Williams and Dreyfuss, or Stevenson and Begly Jr. pull it off, it's always fun and endearing, no matter how pedestrian or acrid some of the material can be. It's all about the parent's here.
sharp-60469 The writing is crazy terrible. Crude sex references seem to be the main goal here (must take a lot of brain power to fit in a mention of blow jobs every single episode).It's a shame because the concept of the show is interesting and different but if the plots weren't bad enough, the cast is just flat and unfunny. Did the producers of this show realize the writing was this bad and tried to save the concept by tossing in some well known names to salvage it? Please end this show. Even re-runs of the Big Bang Theory are better than this junk.
movieguy592 I wanted to like this show, however it's all over the place. While humor is subjective in the sense that different people think different things are funny. So maybe this just isn't my kind of humor. I think the Hollywood needs to retire the theory that unless it revolves around sex and raunchiness it's not funny. There are at a few shows on that debunk that theory so if would be great if writers and producers, etc. catch up. While nothing is technically original, there is still fresh ways to use recycled ideas and characters, this show tries, but falls flat.To put it in perspective, I just watched 3rd Rock From The Sun on Netflix, and laughed harder at that, than I did in the same time span I watch Your Family or Mine. While 3rd Rock might have used boosted and/or commanded laughter, it was much more difficult to tell between that and authentic laughter.Maybe it's unfair to compare 3rd Rock to Your Family or Mine, but to me the two shows seem to have similar characters. I've only seen a couple of Episodes of YFoM, so I know I should give it some time, but the start doesn't seem promising.
