Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

SnoopyStyle Two families are forced together when their kids have an unplanned pregnancy. Ricardo Chavira and Mike O'Malley play the dads, and they don't get along. Mary McCormack is one of the moms who also has an unexpected pregnancy. Justina Machado is the other mom. The actors playing the teens aren't anything special. The dads' constant bickering is very distracting. Although punching balls is always funny. Mary McCormack has a little more to do, and looks slightly better by comparison.There is nothing new in this show. At least they don't have the annoying laugh track. But other than getting punched in the nuts, there isn't much to laugh at. The teens aren't funny at all. The dads are barely tolerable. Only Mary McCormack is watchable.The emphasis seems to be about the adults. I think that misses the comedic point. It seems much more logical and funny if they center the show on the kids. They have lots more to deal with. You can introduce their friends. The parents are better off as co-stars. When push comes to shove, there is no rules to say that in-laws have to be in each other's lives 24-7. But there are reasons that parent-kid relationship is 24-7.

Dr_Sagan A bunch of new family sitcoms is out this season. Mom, Dads, The MJ Fox show etc. etc. and ...Welcome to the family.This is another predictable quirky comedy, like many others, with a plot device already seen many times elsewhere: An unpredictable pregnancy brings to union two (not so different in this case) families. The 2 fathers-in-law had an unfortunate meeting before the sudden news, so they are starting with the wrong foot, but this is not a big deal and ultimately the 2 families are perfect match for each other.Personally I like the pace of this better than the others. Doesn't seem like is shot in a studio but more like in actual houses and has a hint of a movie production although is certainly more fast-paced than that.The cast isn't stellar. I already forget the faces of the actors except Mary McCormack, who I was trying to remember "Who is this woman who looks like Maria Bello". Performances are OK I guess.Also a big plus: There isn't a laugh track to "force" you to laugh.I was about to put it a generous " 6 " for the pilot but I cut one point after seeing next week's trailer and a scene which involves 2 grown men (the fathers in-law) punching each others in the nuts.Anyway, not a series that you will bring up in a conversation and recommend to others to see, but its not as bad as some other newcomers this season.Overall: If you spare some time to kill, consider checking it out.

hi-hellotoyou This show sucks in so many ways. The white dad is ugly and his wife is not. Can we pair up actors with the same looks? Also, I am SICK of the ethnic thing……..move on already! Yes, the Mexicans are smart and the white people are dumb – I get that is what you are promoting! The white girl is stupid and the Mexican boy is smart and cultured. This is just another propaganda show!Sadly, the show was well made and I might have liked it if it not all the punches were played against the Caucasian couple! (I guess I can't post this unless I have ten lines so I will just keep adding stuff until I get ten lines.) You took off Mike and Molly for this? Mike and Molly had nice plot line, Welcome to the Family does not.

zachbernheisel Every review I have read for this show has been completely negative. I really don't understand what people didn't like. I thought it was pretty good. Mike O'Malley is a really good actor, and the cast seems to be having a fun time.Every critic is calling it a "culture clashing" show. They could not be more wrong. Yes, there are two families, one latino and one white, but that is not the point. The cultures aren't clashing, O'Malley and Ricardo Chavira's characters are clashing. They don't like each other, but race has nothing to do with it. Class has a little bit to do with it, but it's mainly a show about two people who can't stand each other, but now they're in laws. Everyone is calling it an All in the Family ripoff, but at most it's an Odd Couple-ripoff, which there have already been about a million of. Not that there's anything wrong with that.I've heard people say it's a racist show? How? There was nothing racist about it. I've heard people call it "broad comedy". But there's no laugh track, physical humor, or over the top performances! If anything, it might be a little bit too low-key. I liked it a lot, and I am not normally a big fan of family comedies.Bottom line, it's not great, but it's good. Ignore the critics, check it out for yourself.
