January 29, 2011I certainly don't think anyone who didn't grow up with series, or at least had some fondness for it is going to get a terrible lot of this, but I have to admit, I quite like it, even though it is stupid, and have watched it quite a few times over the years.
They have done a reall... read more -

November 18, 2009This was actually really great. I've never been a fan of the Brady Bunch, but this was such a well done parody. I love the whole set in the 90s, yet the family is 60s innocent. The performances were so serious, making it all the more hilarious.

October 24, 2009Always liked watching The Brady Bunch TV show, but wasn't crazy about the movies that were derived in the '90s from it

November 24, 2008This movie is good in some ways but equally as bad in other ways, making it just average.
Positives: There are a few original cast members seen in this (Alice, Greg, Carol) which was all pretty sweet. The movie itself had an okay storyline with some kind of funny parts.

June 23, 2008Brilliant re-imagining of The Brady Bunch, keeping the 70's retro feel but shoving them in the mid 90's works surprisingly well. The use of cinematography to separate the two era's is also perfectly handled. As a comedy it works fantastically, and having not seen the show myself ... read more

November 24, 2007For some bizarre reason Flixster listed me as having given five stars to this movie.
Not in its wildest dreams. -
October 4, 2007This was funny in that it made fun of itself through the whole thing. the bad part was that the folks remaking old tv shows into movie thought that was the way to go with everything. Even the crime dramas like Starsky and Hutch.

June 10, 2007It was great seeing the Brady Bunch opening credits on a large theatre screen. The writers were genius by taking the naive Brady family of the 1970's and putting them in a 1995 setting, so they stuck out like a sore thumb. The comedy often coms from witnessing the lack of underst... read more

The actors try hard, but the screenplay isn't solid enough to keep any of them consistently clever. Full Review

The Brady Bunch Movie is never more than lightly amusing, but then neither was the TV show. Full Review

Part homage, part spoof, the deft balancing act is a clever, engaging adaption. Full Review

If dumbness is a large part of our problem, then The Brady Bunch Movie is a small (and oddly cheery) part of its solution.

David Lyman, Film.com
Wonder of wonders, Thomas and her colleagues have turned this mother lode of 1970s kitsch into a pretty tasty little comedy.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
The film establishes a bland, reassuring, comforting Brady reality - a certain muted tone that works just fine but needs, I think, a bleaker contrast from outside to fully exploit the humor. Full Review

I hate to admit it, but I laughed at the Brady Bunch Movie. I laughed a lot.

The problem with The Brady Bunch is that, satirical or serious, ninety minutes is too much. Full Review
