did anybody enjoy the 2 Brady Bunch movies - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

back in the mid to late 90's they made two low budget brady bunch movies that was a parody of the show i was amazed at how entertaining and how similar the brady people in the movies looked like the real life brady bunch family in the 1970's sitcom it just goes to show you that the tv shows in the 60's and 70's would never last in the 90's or 2000's world nowadays things have changed since then they would be total outcasts to society lol, did anybody enjoy the 2 Brady Bunch movies ?

I very much did, being as I own both of them.

I liked them, BTW, they did make a third movie in which Mike Brady became president, but it was a made for TV movie.

I didn't know that the 2 theatrical releases were considered "low budget" -- sorry, but weren't those big films from a major studio, so I doubt that's accurate...?

I liked the first one, but I thought the second one was stupid. Just my opinion!!

I went to see them with no expectations and enjoyed both of them. Normally when a classic TV show is brought to the big screen the results are more often than not, very disapointing. However, in the case of the Brady Bunch movies, I think they made the right decision by keeping them locked in 70's mode. Their contrast to the rest of the world was what made the film that much more entertaining. I especially liked how the look changed when the characters went from the "Brady" world to the real world; it was a nice touch.

First 2 movies were BEST the third one was not great. They could have made at least one more in the late 1990s that could have been a lot better than the 3rd movie with the original cast of the first 2.

I guess I'm the only one who didn't care for them. Just my opinion, but I thought they were both kind of stupid and I never even heard of the third one until now.

The Flying Dutchmans · 09-18-2012, 08:50 PM

I did. I thought they were funny. But the 2nd one was funnier than the 1st IMO

DavidDMI · 10-16-2012, 07:53 AM

The first one is excellent.I didn't care for the sequel,though.I think the best ideas and jokes were used in the first film.

I totally agree! The first film is hilarious,but it seems like they ran out of good jokes and ideas when they made the second film.

PrettyinPink55 · 10-17-2012, 12:58 AM

I loved them both!!! I haven't seen the third movie though.

comedyfreak · 10-17-2012, 08:03 AM

I seen both and enjoyed both of them, loved that Florence and Ann had parts in the first one.

Fuffer · 10-19-2012, 03:50 PM

I liked them both. The characters were pretty accurate IMO.

steevo · 10-19-2012, 08:38 PM

I liked both of them. It was brilliant and funny how they seemed to live in the 70's when it was actually the 90's (at the time).

I never saw the 3rd one, though.
