Billy Crystal and Bette Midler play dysfunctional grandparents. Ouch, and twice ouch.

Rating: 2/4 --
One of those intergenerational embarrassment comedies in the Meet the Fockers line, where children can enjoy seeing grown-ups looking ridiculous.

Rating: 2/5 --
A film with little else to commend it from the obvious.

London Evening Standard
A series of contrivances born of some unholy union between America's Funniest Home Videos and Leave it to Beaver.

Celebuzz
It's definitely a feel good movie, making it the perfect family friendly holiday pick - just remember not to grumble when it doesn't offer any more than that.

Digital Journal
This grating family comedy resembles a sitcom in its flat lighting, patronizing music cues, and frames supplying little visual information apart from the actors' mugging faces.

Parental Guidance is simply not very funny, which given its attempt to incorporate constant humour, poses quite the problem.

Product Description:
Billy Crystal and Bette Midler star as Artie and Diane -- an old-school grandfather and his people-pleasing wife, who babysit for their three decidedly 21st century grandchildren while the kids' type-A parents (played by Marisa Tomei and Tom Everett Scott) are away for work. Artie's traditional ideas go toe-to-toe with the kids' (and their parents') cutting-edge, multitasking ways, but this modern family comes to learn that love, understanding, and an openness to trying new and old things, will always keep a family together. Andy Fickman directs from a script by Lisa Addario and Joe Syracuse.
