Leave your thoughts about Getting Even with Dad.
| Entertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumIt probably sounded terrific in the pitch meeting. |
| New York TimesCaryn JamesBoth Mr. Danson and Mr. Culkin make the film's predictable ending far more effective than it might have been. They are warm without being sappy. It's too bad that the audience, parents and children, are likely to have grown restless long before then. |
| Philadelphia Daily NewsGary ThompsonWhen toddlers are tipping the punchlines, it's time for rewrite. |
| VarietyBrian LowryNeither Macaulay Culkin nor Ted Danson has improved his luck in selecting projects with this schizophrenic comedy, which can't decide if it wants to be broadly farcical or fuzzily heartwarming. While it fares better on the latter front, pic doesn't succeed on either level and should test the patience even among Culkin's peer group. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThe movie never convinced me that much chemistry existed between the cop and the ex-con. And, for that matter, I wasn't much moved by Macaulay Culkin's performance as the smart little waif. |
| Independent on SundayLesley ThorntonMacaulay Culkin is getting on a bit for a child star, but shows no sign of turning into a young actor in Getting Even With Dad. |
| The Seattle TimesJohn HartlThe picture is part slapstick comedy, part tearjerker, but the mixture rarely works, and sometimes it's actively irritating. |
| Baltimore SunStephen HunterCulkin and Danson develop some comic chemistry that’s disarming only if you haven’t tired of both actors’ patented shticks by now. |
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergYeah, the one with Macaulay Culkin and Ted Danson. Avoid at all conceivable cost. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris HicksCulkin's performance here is so lethargic that he seems to bring the entire production down. |
