Critics' Reviews

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Owen Gleiberman
It's been a while since we saw a bad John Hughes comedy, and Are We There Yet? more than fits the bill (even though Hughes had absolutely nothing to do with it).Read Full Review »

Philadelphia Inquirer: Carrie Rickey
This is not the plot of your typical Ice Cube movie. It does, however, combine the plots of at least three John Hughes movies.Read Full Review »

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: Roger Ebert
I would have loved to see a genuine love story involving Ice Cube, Nia Long, and the challenge of a lifelong bachelor dating a woman with children. Sad that a story like that couldn't get made, but this shrill "comedy" could.Read Full Review »

Village Voice: Mark Holcomb
Levant and his screenwriting posse attempt to wring maximum hilarity from this setup, but it's just too schizoid.Read Full Review »

Salon.com: Stephanie Zacharek
I can't recall ever having seen a single bad Ice Cube performance, and his utter charm even in flimsy material like this only reaffirms his gifts.Read Full Review »

The New York Times: Dana Stevens
The always charismatic Ice Cube makes Are We There Yet? watchable.Read Full Review »

Washington Post: Teresa Wiltz
The humor's a tad too raunchy for the kids, and the predictable plot won't win over any of the parents.Read Full Review »

LOS ANGELES TIMES: Kevin Thomas
Gets nowhere. Its star Ice Cube remains characteristically amiable, but this thuddingly miscalculated comedy is way beneath him.Read Full Review »
