Critics Consensus

This supposed family comedy staring the usually blameless Ice Cube and Nia Long has provoked most critics to write, "Is it over yet?"

Are We There Yet? all too effectively conveys the claustrophobic horror of being shackled in a small space with two whiny, hateful children.

Are We There Yet? manages to be utterly tasteless, saccharine and unsatisfying all at once.

Although it's far from perfect, there are enough laughs and endearing moments to just about keep you and -- more importantly perhaps -- the kids entertained for the whole ride.

Rated: 3/5

Was pretty surprised by how low of a score this got. One of my favorite films, with a great and super entertaining cast.

Anyone who doesn’t like this movie is tasteless and brining. This is a lighthearted movie about these awful kids learning to love their moms boyfriend vise versa ice cube learns to love these terrible children. the acting for all characters are great. this movie is extremely nostalgic to me. my only con would be there needs to be more Nia Long!!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
