Jeff M After hours of intense thought and deliberation, I have decided to let nostalgia outweigh common sense and give this a slightly passing grade. I know most of the performances are on the level of what you would find in an Eggo Waffles commercial, including some of the most annoying child acting in history. I know the plot and writing are below the standards of your average sitcom, including a dramatic twist at the end that feels totally out of place when compared with the rest of the shenanigans. But how can I give a negative review to a Brady Bunch movie on Christmas Eve? Even my three-sizes-too-small heart couldn't fathom the thought. I do wish the filmmakers had used a bit more imagination - perhaps do something satirical along the lines of the theatrical movies that came along a few years later. But in the end, I suppose it accomplishes what it sets out to do, and those who grew up with the sitcom will appreciate seeing most of the original cast reunite. And I'd be lying if I said I will never watch this again. Plus, it doesn't feature Kirk Cameron, so all is well. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/24 Full Review Audience Member Totally forgettable and lousy nostalgia milking movie. This desire Hollywood has with milking nostalgia has been going om for over 30 years as this movie demonstrates. All involved should've passed on this boring movie that's aged like bad cheese. The original series is more enjoyable. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member My all-time favorite Christmas movie! If it weren't for that, it would probably only rate a 3, but compared to the other Christmas movies I've seen, it gets a comparative 4. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This ws HUGE according to Greg....the highest grossing and watched tv movie of 1988. It was nice to see what the Bradys were up to after being absent for such a ling time! ABSOLUTELY loved the updated interiors to the house! So fresh and light in the southwest look that was so popular then. I wish HGTV had done the interior to the renovation like this! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Caught it on YouTube for the holiday season - life's not great for the Brady's after all the kids marry and move out, as all of them have their own personal crises that they have to deal with and solve, just in time for Christmas. Predictable fun, but a rental at best. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member I remember the cheese-tastic ending of "A Very Brady Christmas". Why they needed to end on a "Miracle on 34th Street" gag, I'll never know. And Bobby Brady becoming a race car driver has been an on going joke with me for years. That was really a decent TV movie all things considered however and probably one of the better ones from the: "let's revisit an old show and see what the characters are up to now" MFTV shows. Flat out copy and pasted from a Facebook comment I just gave. That sums up this film perfectly. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
