Union looks so good at pushing 50, I couldn’t tell her apart from the kids on the poster.

Zach Braff is so bad, he even made Florence Pugh less hot to me.

I am of course all over this, as I have seen the two Cheaper By The Dozen films with Steve Martin, and the other large family film which is the remake of Yours, Mine and Ours with Rene Russo and Dennis Quaid, so this should be a fun watch. It helps that I love the cast for this latest remake.

I don't understand the reasoning. This doesn't look at all like the Steve Martin movies. This seems to be just loud noises.

Seems more Brady Bunch in the setup since the book, original film and the 2 Martin movies were based on a single family unit rather than 2 blended families. Looks like fluff, but I guess it could be fun (enjoyed the Martin movies quite a bit).

Now that you mention it, I forgot that the Martin movies did not involve any family blending, but as far as saying this film just seems to be loud noises, well to be fair, you could say the same thing for the Martin films. I just have to hope that some of the visual gags land amid the cacophony of noise that is this film.

No thanks. Only reason the old two films were enjoyable was the cast. I don't care for any of the kids in this one.

Don't like how they are not using the Fox logo.

I'm in for Braff but the trailer didn't have a single laughable moment in it. Looks pretty rough.

I wish Braff did something like Garden State or Wish I was Here and not this kiddy movie.

He did. Something starring Morgan Freeman and Deniro, maybe? Not sure if the title is out yet.

Zach Braff the actor has to take an occasional role in a movie like this to fund Zach Braff the director.

But he does have "A Good Person" with Freeman, Pugh, and Zoe Lister-Jones coming out.

I remember seeing a trailer in theatres for The Comeback Trail, but it never seemed to actually get a release in the US. It was pushed back to some time this year apparently.

I'm fine if he takes the occasional comedic role. I'm not going to lie, that's selfish on my part because if he wants to do Blue Beetle and Booster Gold with Faison I'm all aboard.
