Are We Done Yet? One can only hope. (Sorry, but when a critic dislikes a film, and is handed a title like Are We Done Yet? he has to answer the call.)

Consensus: Are We Done Yet? plays it way too safe with generic slapstick and uninspired domestic foibles.
Theatrical Release:08-06-2007
Synopsis: Rapper-turned-actor Ice Cube reprises his role as the Everyman-sports-fanatic Nick Persons of the road-trip slapstick comedy ARE WE THERE YET? (2005), evolving from bachelorhood to domesticated... [More]
Reviews for Are We Done Yet?
Puerile prop gags slapped in without development, an inane score, dud reactions, Steve Carr's dismal direction, a Magic Johnson phone-in cameo -- it adds up to the question that keeps arising, which is (yep) the title.

Following up on his execrable 2005 semi-hit Are We There Yet?, Ice Cube once again turns the world off with a scowl in Are We Done Yet?
04/05/07
the most mechanical kind of moviemaking... Every time you think 'Done' has gone as low as it can go, it manages to sink a little bit further into the septic tank...

Atrocious.
04/05/07
Director Steve Carr continues his streak of numbingly mediocre family comedies.
04/05/07
So are we done yet with his snarl for self-deprecating giggles? Sadly, this is one bad rap session that shouldn't be featured on a future Ice Cube-inspired CD.

Is it over yet?

The new movie is good-natured and sometimes funny. It also doesn't make a lick of sense.
04/04/07
The film desperately needs a stronger script; one with a few funny jokes would be nice. Instead what we get is an incessant score that punctuates every pratfall and clues the audience in to what's meant to be funny.

Don't expect classic screwball charm from this by-the-numbers family gagfest.

Let me, a UW alumnus, assure you that no one would have Husky purple and Cougar crimson in the same closet. The fact that Nick wears both shows how top-to-bottom brainless this movie is.
04/04/07
The actors are all likable, the film moves at a brisk pace and there are even one or two jokes that appear to be original.
04/04/07
If you've seen the brilliantly edited trailer, you've seen just about every single laugh in the movie.
04/04/07
If only someone had thought to fix the script.
04/04/07
Are We Done Yet? may be remarkable only for the fact that its star was ever once actually considered a threat to civic stability. If movies came any safer than this, they'd be given honourary police citations for keeping the peace.
04/04/07
There is something almost revolutionary about the way it and a couple of other recent movies (including this week's Firehouse Dog) are attempting to bring back the sort of live-action family films that Disney used to churn out in the '70s.
04/04/07
Ice Cube, here's a message for you. Henceforth, until you make a better movie than Are We Done Yet?, we're resorting to calling you Lukewarm Cube.
04/04/07
It's enjoyable for what it is, but without McGinley, it would've needed major remodeling.
04/04/07
In most films, a bathroom-related joke would represent the lowest form of humor. In this one, it's a highlight.
