That we're supposed to find any of these characters appealing is just one of the mysteries posed by this so-called 'family' comedy.

The problem is that, if anything, [Ice Cube] is too likeable - he's never allowed to really get angry with the kids, which severely hampers the comic potential of the premise.

This somewhat schizophrenic comedy may be expressing Cube's own ambivalence about parting ways with his NWA inner bad boy and embracing fatherhood and all of its virtuous authority figure dimensions.

Are We There Yet? all too effectively conveys the claustrophobic horror of being shackled in a small space with two whiny, hateful children.
10/06/06
Are We There Yet? is more interested in crass humor than in creating remotely believable characters that we might actually care about.

It's never too early to start that 'Worst of 2005' list, and Are We There Yet? is already a worthy contender.

Are We There Yet? is the perfect movie for your children, assuming you hate your children.

What does Brian Levant have against the stars of Boyz N the Hood? First Cuba Gooding Jr. in Snow Dogs, now Cube and Nia Long in one fell swoop.

Several of my grand kids were with me at a recent screening and loved the film. Some critics have panned the film, citing the kids were too cruel. I disagree.

The evolution of Ice Cube from 'AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted' to America's Most Cuddly continues.

Mean-spirited "family" comedy with inane script and lack of decent performances.**
01/31/05
None of the film's major events are very funny or interesting, but Cube manages a few delightfully funny and charming small moments.

Someone should have stolen Ice Cube's car keys to keep him from making this road-movie road kill.
01/28/05
Are We There Yet? is not a great film, but it’ll do. Remember, you can do a lot worse this month.
