Seattle Post-Intelligencer Sean Axmaker
Quaid and Russo outshine the script with their presence and chemistry alone.
Read Full Review >The Hollywood Reporter Michael Rechtshaffen
Unable to decide whether it wants to be a rambunctious family comedy or a tender romantic comedy, the Dennis Quaid-Rene Russo vehicle strains to be both and ends up falling short of both marks.
Read Full Review >Washington Post Desson Thomson
The storyline is so familiar ("Cheaper by the Dozen," et al), the audience can practically call out scenes ahead of time.
Read Full Review >Entertainment Weekly Lisa Schwarzbaum
The movie, directed with a gym teacher's whistle by "Scooby-Doo's" Raja Gosnell, is a contempo soft-focus remake of the 1968 original starring Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Stephen Holden
So snug, airtight and insulated from reality that the nice, well-scrubbed "Cheaper by the Dozen" seems almost rambunctious by comparison.
Read Full Review >Boston Globe Ty Burr
The movie equivalent of a box of generic macaroni and cheese: bland, easily digested, comforting, forgettable.
Read Full Review >Miami Herald Peter Debruge
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 Full Review >Baltimore Sun Chris Kaltenbach
The best thing that can be said about this Yours, Mine and Ours is that it's inoffensive.
Read Full Review >Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas
Synthetic, strained and noisy, Yours, Mine & Ours is a clinker that doesn't bear comparison with the original. Quaid, Russo and others deserve better.
Read Full Review >Empire Simon Braund
Amazing – a movie that somehow manages to be both irritatingly familiar and instantly forgettable.
Read Full Review >New York Daily News Jami Bernard
The humor is supposed to stem from the clash of kids who have been raised so differently and of partners with opposing views of child care. But there are just so many jokes you can make about who gets to use the bathroom when.
Read Full Review >Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
There's not a moment in this story arc that is not predictable.
Read Full Review >TV Guide Maitland McDonagh
Rip Torn, Linda Hunt and Jerry O'Connell mark time in minor supporting roles.
Read Full Review >Chicago Reader J.R. Jones
This wretched remake was helmed by Raja Gosnell, perpetrator of the live-action "Scooby-Doo" movies. I'm partial to Quaid and Russo, but there are limits.
Read Full Review >Austin Chronicle Marjorie Baumgarten
The kind of film that will be suitable for all-ages entertainment once the family runs out of conversation after devouring all the turkey, but it's unlikely to expand its audience beyond these captives.
Read Full Review >USA Today Mike Clark
As an artsy but minimally bohemian type, Russo maintains her dignity, an extraordinary accomplishment.

Conor S. gave it a0:
This movie is terrible. The acting is bad all around, the plot is a rip off of the already bad "Cheaper By The Dozen." The humor isn't bad- it's NONEXISTENT!
Fred G gave it a0:
This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I would have walked out, but couldn't. Russo and Quaid should repent by doing charity work, because they ripped us off.
gave it a0:
Horrible.
Devin D. gave it a7:
Looks pretty good but the acting is really good at all. I never seen it but by far the acting doesn't look that good.
Chrissy gave it a1:
Lame? Boring? Annoying? Tiresome? Played-out? Yes, all of those words do describe this movie. A cheap rip-off of the terrible "Cheaper by the Dozen" movies in my opinion. A great family movie if your children are blinde and deaf.
[Anonymous] gave it a0:
Awful, just awful. Another clueless Holywood remake of what wasn't even a good movie first time. Made by desperate execs without a good idea to rub between them.
lily m. gave it a4:
It was good,but quite lame.Nothing funny.
