Tuchergson Truly the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

Hailie Stam Oh i loved this movie. The twins are so sweet and you can just sense the whole Christmas spirit. Mary Kate and Ashley had done a great job even though they were just kids. J. Eddie Peck was really good too. He completely blended in his role. The cast was brilliantly picked. You would never say it is an 1992 movie because compared to some 'nowadays' movies this is a classic ! This was my favorite movie when I was a kid and even though so many years have passed I can still watch it and feel the same way I did when I first saw it. It's an adorable movie for the whole family to watch and enjoy. Especially around holidays.I would recommend it to anyone.

stanclimbfll Mary-Kate and Ashley are really obnoxious in TGHWG. Sometimes I had to change the channel to stop myself from throwing the remote at their irritating little faces. The only good thing about this movie was Eddie. He was funny although he swore in front of the little kids.1 out of 10

ActJef1077 I don't care what anyone else says about this movie. I loved it when I was 10, and I love it now. The Olsen girls are so talented and absolutely adorable. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a moron, no exceptions. Jerry Van Dyke and Rhea Perlman give wonderful performances as the two crooks. And the cameos by Saget and Loughlin only put the icing on the cake of this lovely, funny, adorable, fun-filled show.

c.sherlock if you like that sort of thing. I suppose this movie is harmless enough, but there is no chance that it will go down in the annals of cinematography as one of the best movies ever. It is, at best, harmless fluff.To summarize, this movie features the Olsen twins who, at least temporarily, appear to have faded into obscurity. I suppose this is an example of poetic justice since a lot of the people in "TGHWG" who previously had perfectly viable careers apparently have disappeared from the cultural landscape.Besides these charming cherubs, the movie stars Cynthia Geary, Jerry Van Dyke, Rhea Perlman and others who will probably soon grace the pages of Biography Magazine's "Where Are They Now" section. Geary plays the twins' ineffectual single mom who can't keep her children from escaping when they think she wants them gone. A highlight of the film is Geary's dead-on impression of the late Boris Karloff while reading "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" to her children. Geary's character also apparently spends a good bit of the movie fantasizing about what her life would be like with a working class hero (played to perfection by soap opera star J. Eddie Peck).Perlman and Van Dyke (in his most challenging role since "Coach") play bumbling crooks who are somewhat harmless, despite the fact that they are, in fact, crooks. To be honest, crooks don't come any more harmless than these two, who probably couldn't hold up a fleeing turtle.The most unfortunate victim of this movie is perhaps Stuart Margolin, who plays a detective. Margolin's appearance here is particularly tragic when you consider he was a big star prior to this. He had even appeared in "Women of the Prehistoric Planet" with John Agar. Of course, "Women of the Prehistoric Planet" was hardly Oscar material, so perhaps Margolin was also a victim of poetic justice. Unfortunately for those of us who fondly remember Margolin as Angel on "The Rockford Files", he too seems to have since disappeared off the face of the earth (although rumor has it he is now working at a 7-11 in Des Moines, Iowa under an assumed name).In short, watching "To Grandmother's House We Go" most likely won't do you any harm. However, it will take up a significant chunk of your life that could have perhaps been better spent doing other things, such as watching reruns of "Gadabout Gaddis" or cleaning your gutters.
