There aren't words pathetic enough to describe this awful movie!! Why did Gary Cole even agree to star in this pile of crap?

I saw this on Netflix, and being a fan of "The Brady Bunch Movie", and "A Very Brady Sequel", and while I didn't have high expectations, I didn't take it too seriously either.First let's start off with the Bradys, aside from Cary Cole and Shelly Long reprising their roles as Mike and Carol, none of the Bradys look remotely close to the original Brady or the movie Bradys. I honestly thought they got a 4-year old to play Cindy.Then there's Alice, oh Alice, she seemed more like a cartoon. Then there's Greg, who looks like he had a bad perm and is in competition with Alice in the 'overacter' category.I remember the strange feelings Greg and Marcia had towards each other in The Brady Sequel, but this movie pushes the envelope, from Greg talking to a girl about her breasts at a drive in movie, or Marcia praying to increase her bust, things the real Bradys would never talk or even *think* about, and yes I could have done without the Greg and Marcia romance scene—I thought we've already gone down that road. It was funnier when someone said something sexual to the Bradys and their innocent mind mistaking it for something else (like Marcia thinking "Ménage à trois" written in her yearbook meant "you're the most") When the presidential portraits started talking to Jan, I thought was just *too* much.Yes, I did give this movie a chance, and no I didn't like it. It had a couple of "ha" moments, but nothing I could call "laugh out loud". This definitely has the made for TV feel, with plenty of stock footage and even a still of the U-Haul in the Brady's driveway from the first Brady movie.As a side note, I actually thought it was funnier that the under filming locations it listed only Toronto, Canada.

Mike Brady makes it into the office of Presidency because the President elect (just seconds before accepting office) runs out. Literally. There's a little laugh as we're treated to a super-imposed Bush & Clinton in the background, but that's about the best this solid gold pooper has to offer.It really is sad to see a good film series come to this. I know it happens, just look at what became of the Police Academy series. It's just too bad good money has to be wasted like this. (I mean my 20 dollars buying the thing, because I was thrilled to see another Brady Bunch movie after all this time. What a let down!)They couldn't even get kids who looked as much like their alter egos as the first two films did. I mean, come on... these new kids were probably related to someone who financed the thing. That's how bad they were.At least Shelley Long & Gary Cole stayed on board. They're always great. But the rest? Good grief!!There was also way too much music in this film. It got uncomfortable to watch after a while. A short song is okay, but three?? Come on. We know the Brady's sang... we don't need to be reminded every film!If the producers have run the well dry... if this is the best they can come up with... cheaply-filmed (it looked like videotape), amateur hour film school garbage, than just hang it up!

Yes, this movie was "lame" and a great disappointment. I didn't watch it "live" so I was able to edit out the commercials. It doesn't make it any better.A lot has been said about the fact that the kid actors were all recast, but I feel the need to remind everybody that the first Brady Bunch movie was made in 1995 -- seven years ago -- and all of those actors were MUCH older than their characters THEN. Now they'd just be laughable (and not in a good way).People are all abuz about Greg and Marcia talking about repopulating the world (the line "we're not REALLY brother and sister" was in the preview so I'm not saying much there). I will simply remind the readers that A Very Brady Sequel took things MUCH further, with Greg and Marcia sharing the attic room, checking eachother out (both at the pool and behind the sheet separating their beds) and a full fleged on the mouth KIS at the end.SPOILER'S AHEAD:Safety Monitor Bobby Brady finds a lottery ticket when he rescues a little girl's cat from an abandoned building (sound familliar?). Bobby and the other kids want to keep it, but Mike will hear nothing of it. After numerous attempts to find the owner of the ticket by asking people to tell what they wrote on the back of it (it was a 1-900 number), they decide to cash it in and donate the money to a home for homeless architects.The President of the United States recognizes this in a White House press conference. At the same press conference it is anounced that the Vice President has resigned in discrace (or is it he isn't running again because of a scandal? something like that). The President tells everyone that he has a committee searching for a candidate and makes a comment about "not everybody's like Mike Brady" and someone suggests that he ask Mike. It seems popular so he runs with it.He is overwhelmingly re-elected because of massive turnouts of people who won't let the 70's die vote for him. In one of his campaign statements the President denies all knowlege of some corrupt oil dirller or some such thing. Just as he is about to be sworn in, someone shows him a picture of himself at the drilling site and he promptly walks off. Someone shows the same picture to the Cheif Justice of the Supreme Court who understands and swears Mike in as President.The family returns home, packs things up and moves into the white house. The next half hour is full of jibes at the cluelessness of the Bradys (especially Jan, who has taken to talking to a picture of Abe Lincoln) as they settle into life in the White House.Anyway, after settling in, Mike's first order of business is to select a Vice President (Contrary to what another reviewer said, this IS legal. A sitting president selects a replacement as long as the Senate approves it. This is established by the Richard Nixon/Spero Agnew/Gerrold Ford fiasco). There is no law against the First Lady being Vice President. The Senate is reluctant to accept this. but ends up doing so. They later regert it when, while presiding over the Senate, she makes two of them have a time out because thery are arguing.There are several more entertaining scenes where Bobby breaks a priceless vase and the other kids all cover for him (and suffer for it) because he really wants to go to "Camp David." (Sound familliar?)Soon enough it becomes apparent that the Speaker of the House and a white house staffer are in kahoots to gain power. Angry that the speaker was not chosen to be Vice President they plot to unseat Mike. They switch Bobby's homework with some important documents from NASA and trick Mike into anouncing that a huge asteroud is going to crash into the planet killing everyone.He then talks the Bradys into hiding in the White House Bunker because it will give comfort to the American People to know that the First Family. While hiding we have the now infamous conversation where Greg and Marcia talk about repopulating the world (the Incest Taboo).Cindy tattles that she saw the speaker switch the papers and the family breaks out of the bunker (which was locked behind them) just in time to tell the press what the Speaker has done and he is arrested by the Secret Service.The End.
