Warmed-up John Huges pap. Not even the hard-working Ed O'Neill can save the day.
January 01, 2000
Hughes has written, directed and/or produced so many of these films by now that perhaps we can even forgive him for beginning to repeat himself.

It's all assembly-line stuff.

Hughes appears to love these characters, but he's serving a platter of rancid gags, losing interest as the story lurches from one roadside encounter to the next.

The acting is only a little more uninspired than the screenplay, which is directed without shame or flair by Peter Faiman of Crocodile Dundee.

Coarse tale of family and Thanksgiving for teens.

It's not Hughes' worst comedy effort by far, but it surely is by no means his best...

Provides quite a few moments of fun and pathos for audiences who appreciate sophisticated family fare.

Hughes, a man more prolific than Stephen King and less inspired than Aaron Spelling, has produced yet another forgettable project. This movie shouldn't even be allowed on planes.

from the director of "Crocodile Dundee"? surely not!

A tiny peek into what the entire Hughes filmography might have been like if Hughes was a dogmatic Marxist.

If a film like this is to be funny at all, it had better work when the warring principals still hate each other, before the rich boy is shown to be a sweet kid and the whole story turns to mush.
