Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times: Bland and witless. Read more
Robert K. Elder, Chicago Tribune: Yours, Mine & Ours isn't so much a movie as it is scene after scene of [Dennis] Quaid getting pelted with paint, food and other associated goo. But even as slapstick, it's a major snoozefest. Read more
J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader: I'm partial to Quaid and Russo, but there are limits. Read more
Ruthe Stein, San Francisco Chronicle: Everything in the film is totally predictable. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: It's terrible. Read more
Phil Kloer, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: What matters is how stale and charmless this movie feels, how hard the actors all work in the service of mediocrity, and how shameless Hollywood is for feeding us thin porridge like this and then wondering why box office is down. Read more
Bill Muller, Arizona Republic: In watching Yours, Mine & Ours, you have to wonder what the director had against star Dennis Quaid. Read more
Ty Burr, Boston Globe: Yours, Mine & Ours is the movie equivalent of a box of generic macaroni and cheese: bland, easily digested, comforting, forgettable. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: Synthetic, strained and noisy. Read more
Tom Long, Detroit News: Yours, Mine and Ours is indeed recycled garbage, but it's fairly harmless recycled garbage. It's certainly not enough to make you gag. Set your standards low, and the worst you should get is a hiccup or two. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: The modern soft edges only accentuate the datedness of the premise. Read more
John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press: Even those viewers attracted to the mayhem promised by Yours, Mine and Ours will have to admit what a mess has been made of this kids-in-a-shoe family comedy. Read more
Philip Wuntch, Dallas Morning News: If you're determined to adore each heavy-handed gag, relish the story line's utter simplicity and bathe in the glow of its calculated warmth, you may tolerate Yours, Mine & Ours. Read more
Christopher Orr, L.A. Weekly: There is a time to every purpose under heaven, but let us hope this particular one doesn't last too long. Turn, turn, turn. Read more
Peter Debruge, Miami Herald: The remake seems to have been written and directed by people whose only experience with children is the long-distant memory of having been kids themselves so many years ago. Read more
Gene Seymour, Newsday: I guess my Mommy thinks if we see movies like Yours, Mine & Ours we won't run around so much when we get home. Read more
Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger: The movie slowly progresses in predictable fashion, with every misunderstanding (and final rapprochement) carefully choreographed. Read more
Jami Bernard, New York Daily News: There are just so many jokes you can make about who gets to use the bathroom when. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: Culture clash, the military organizer versus Ms. 'Free to be you and me,' makes for some cute bits, most of them slapstick. There just aren't enough of them. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: There's not a moment in this story arc that is not predictable. Read more
Jeff Strickler, Minneapolis Star Tribune: The frenzy peters out, leaving youngsters as bored as their parents. Read more
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail: Watching Dennis Quaid falling face down into vats of goop, getting kissed by a pig and talking baby talk in Yours, Mine and Ours is one of those experiences that causes you to question your faith in Hollywood's motives. Read more
Peter Howell, Toronto Star: ... it loses a good deal of humour along with its social relevance. Read more
Mike Clark, USA Today: Yes, this groaner retreads the ground of the middling-at-best 1968 movie of the same name. Read more
Matt Singer, Village Voice: [A] shrill family comedy. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: The characters are kept simple, completely one-dimensional. Read more
