A movie for all the family

by

Loved, loved, loved this film. No violence or sex. Billy Crystal is hilarious. We and our 12-year old granddaughter laughed so much. Wasn't expecting much; was so pleasantly surprised.

Parental Guidance

by paulandann

Very funny. We laughed a lot. It was also very touching. I would see it again. I am sure we missed something while we were laughing.

Perfect for the season

by rubios_us

This was a decent movie that made the whole family both laugh and cry. We expected a poor movie based on the ratings, but as usual, the ratings never do a movie justice.

GOTTA SEE IT!

by jenny_aston

Great movie for people of all ages! No violence, sex, drugs, or foul language...quite refreshing for this day and age! It also has a great message about family, "unplugging" and communicating with others! I grew up seeing Bette and Billy in movies...they are as great today as they were then!

Good family movie

by Pale9621

Good family movie for all ages. Billy and Bette both do a good job with their roles and while the story is semi-predicatable, it is still funny.

Parental Guidance

by MovingPicX13

I went to the movies to have a good time with fun and laugher. And, this movie hit the spot. A wonderful movie for all to see - especially, grandparents and young parents trying to be "perfect" parents. Go see it America, forget your troubles for a few hours.

Excellent Movie!

by Tripster1234

Parental Guidance was a hysterical "feel good" movie! I would feel safe taking any of my great nieces and nephews to see this. Yet the humor is good enough that my friend and I took the movie in and really enjoyed it ourselves!!

Just ok

by ninahines

This movie was just ok. There were no moments that I really felt fully engaged with the movie. I also felt the need to explain to my kids what scenes were not okay for them to ever consider.

Great Family Fun for all generations!

by radecki3

Great movie for all generations! Not crude like Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro even though I LOVE THOSE MOVIES my father does not so I knew he would love this movie!

Cute story line but the acting was atrocious

by kimmquilt

I've seen Billy Crystal, Bette Middler and Marissa Tomei in other movies before and had come away with the notion that they were pretty good actors. Maybe it was the story line or maybe they were catering more to an audience of chidren but it seemed like they were forcing every line. Very overdone or maybe it was just poor acting. Of course I didn't pick this movie thinking I would see Oscar performances but these were really disappointing. Like they all phoned it in. Definitely a wait til it comes out in DVD , Blue Ray or on Netflix. I did find some parts very funny and one part quite touching but again because the acting was overdone it was on the whole disappointing.

Parental Guideance

by USMCRECON6869

Parental Guidance was a Hilarious Comedy, Very Funny, Writter did a Great Job, Movie could not be be Anticipated. Should have more Comedies out there for the Public and less Perverted and Violent or Vampire & Wolfman Non-Realistic Movies! That just may help Adults & Children, find more Peaceful Thoughts and more Respect for Life ! It was Great to see Bette Midler & Billy Crystal together, Loved it ! Thanks

Critics Need to Lighten Up!!

by nogaa

This movie was a wonderful distraction from the real world. It was light hearted, funny and entertaining. I laughed and cried. My children also truly enjoyed this movie. It was a nice break from the overrated, 2 plus hour long and exhausting films that critics give such high acclaim too. Take your family and enjoy!
