Are We Done Yet?

MPAA Rating:PG
Distributor:Columbia Pictures
Director:Steve Carr
Starring:Ice Cube as Nick Persons, Nia Long as Suzanne Persons, John C. McGinley as Chuck Mitchell Jr., Aleisha Allen as Lindsey Persons and Philip Bolden as Kevin Persons.

There's just not enough room in Nick's little apartment for his new wife, Suzanne, her two kids, Lindsey and Kevin, and a fledgling magazine business. So the Persons decide to look for a nice place outside the city that might let them spread out a bit. They find a sprawling country home with property, fruit trees and even a small guest cottage where Nick can write. What seemed heaven-sent soon turns into something quite the opposite as Nick realizes that the house is in need of more fixing than he'd planned.

The importance of family and friendship becomes the movie's theme as Nick and his new family go through a series of mishaps. Nick recognizes how his frustration and negative choices have separated him from his wife and the kids. And he takes steps to repair what he knows is important.

There is some cartoon-like violence as Nick takes some tumbles. There are also about half a dozen misuses of God's name and some name-calling. On several occasions Lindsey and Kevin disrespect their new stepfather.

The film starts out bumpy, but it ends with positive choices, forgiveness and family unity. Are We Done Yet? sets out to prove that home is where the heart is.
