Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

GazerRise Fantastic!

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

John Brooks You know a film does well when it's a comedy, succeeds in being funny without going overboard, and still has enough gas in the tank to last almost a full two hours without simply being a narrative linearly developed just passing its due duration time.Half way through the film, the plot changes and adapts to new events and problems. There are proper funny scenes (the older kids getting Lucille Ball unknowingly drunk scene) and moments with secondary characters (the whole family doctor visiting the house scene concluded as he slides down the stairs like a kid) that help give the film good dynamism entertainment wise where it easily just could've been a plain collection of strong morals and values depicted in boring old scenes.One would have to concede, at very least, it's quite an ambitious endeavor to bring that plot to film ! And do it successfully, at that. Fonda is great as always, Ball is good, and the whole family buys into the spirit of the film just fine.Watching more contemporary cinema, this is a film that has certainly influenced lots of newer movies, in various different ways. And while family comedies quickly became a national habit in the U.S., this one here elevates the fundamental values of a healthy American society and shine on them a brighter light than any of the newer efforts. We sure miss the spirit of such films today...8.5/10.

rickdumesnil why is it people care so much how old Lucille ball and henry Fonda were in the movie. when i saw it i thought that they both looked awfully believable in their roles and thats that. fun movie with miss ball doing scenes that remind us of the classic i love Lucy.....and Mr. Fonda looking debonair and actually good in comedy. the kid who stole the show Eric Shea...wow is he natural and good and this also went on in the Poseidon adventure. wonder what became of him. the scenes are all cute and the dialogue really is the dialogue parents and kids would have. not a absolutely great film...but a honest fun one that i enjoyed very much.

wes-connors Should a widow with eight children marry a widower with ten? Well, yes, if the lady is played by Lucille Ball. This movie is heavily dependent on Ms. Ball, who manages to carry the film on her comic shoulders. It's nice to see an older actress playing a beautiful, romantic leading role; and, watching Ball is the main attraction, after all these years. The situation is something different than anything she would do on television, at the time. Herein, there are subtle, snickering sex (and drug) jokes.Mostly, you get to see how Ball and Henry Fonda (as Helen and Frank Beardsley) manage merging their reluctant offspring. This situation plays better than "The Lucy Show" meets "The Brady Bunch" (that latter show must have been inspired, at least in part, by the success of this film). The earlier "courtship" scenes are sweeter, and funnier, than the remainder of the film.In a large cast of children, it's difficult to stand out - unless the script gives you something to do. Tim Matheson (as Mike) and Eric Shea (as Phillip) are the luckiest recipients. And, Jennifer Leak (as Colleen) gets to fend off Ben Murphy, her "frustrated, sex maniac" boyfriend.****** Yours, Mine and Ours (4/24/68) Melville Shavelson ~ Lucille Ball, Henry Fonda, Tim Matheson, Van Johnson

tammyluvsfilm Yours Mine and Ours is the tender, touching and tantalizing tale of a mildly retarded 70-year-old red-headed woman who accidentally gets drunk and then miraculously gets pregnant with a baby. A complex color- and number-coded system teaches the children the value of sticking to their own bedroom and bathroom, and not only is a good time had by all, but a valuable lesson is learned by all. Nancy Roth's near-award-winning role as Rosemary Beardsley is a haunting practice in joie de vivre, as is Mr. Tom Bosley in the role of the cuddly, mildly hairy gentleman known as "Family Doctor." Keep your eyes open for a young Larry Hankin as "Supermarket Clerk/Harry."
