Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
The actors try hard, but the screenplay isn't solid enough to keep any of them consistently clever.
The Brady Bunch Movie is never more than lightly amusing, but then neither was the TV show.
Part homage, part spoof, the deft balancing act is a clever, engaging adaption.
Wonder of wonders, Thomas and her colleagues have turned this mother lode of 1970s kitsch into a pretty tasty little comedy.
