  Review by Steve Sandberg ★★★★½ 6

  The Brady Bunch Movie has become something entirely fascinating since its release in 1995, as we, in the present, are now just about as far removed from The Brady Bunch Movie as The Brady Bunch Movie was from The Brady Bunch. Intended as a self-aware satire showing the wholesome sitcom family clashing with the cynicism of the '90s, the film adaptation now plays out like two distinct time capsules duking it out to see which is more worthy of ridicule, and that battle's outcome is... unclear.

  There's no explanation offered as to why the Brady gang is occupying the same house in the same suburb, all of them unchanged after 20 years. Was time travel involved? Or are they themselves…

  Review by claire 👁️ diane ★★★ 5

  every moment Jan is on screen is incredible. she plays it at an absolute gonzo pitch. but like all of the casting is perfect? bits like Jan riding her bike into bushes and fences because she refuses to wear her glasses are still so endearing. and Greg is pitch perfect in his total obliviousness and the perfect portrait of one decade's dreamy mutating into another's embarrassment. but my favorite thing about this movie is that while they sort of play Marsha's lesbian friend, Norine, as a predatory stereotype/punchline, she is just completely endearing and the movie makes sure to let her find another gay girl to be with and that was really sweet. i love you Norine. you are why…

  Review by Josh Gillam ★★★★ 2

  When moving over to the big screen, some sitcom adaptations try to modernise their source material, while others want to capture the spirit of the original; this film manages to do both with a clever and tongue-in-cheek spin, plucking the Bradys out of their twee early 70s network TV setting and placing them into the more cynical present day of the mid-90s, and what I think makes this work so well is how much it commits to and juggles those two tones without letting one ever overcome the other.

  Unlike the usual sort of parody movies the writers here obviously know these characters really well, and perfectly capture the original show’s corny sitcommy sensibility while leaning into its unintented humour…

  God, I love the Bradys. So damn groovy. Honestly one of the greatest comedies ever made. I’ve seen this so many times but it still has me in stitches. Put on your Sunday best, we’re going to Sears.

  Review by Scumbalina ★★★★½ 7

  I've seen this more times than I can count. It was hugely influential on me but because of the obviousness of what it is, I've never openly given it due credit.

  My obsession with the Monkees started here. When Davy Jones walks on stage and sings "Girl" backed by a Faith No More wannabe band, I was forever changed. I got my first Monkees cd for my next birthday. It was a greatest hits. This one right here. Soon after I joined the Monkees fan club and became pen pals with another girl my age who was obsessed with the Monkees. We wrote each other letters about our favorite songs and which Monkee we had crushes on. Mine was Mickey,…

  Review by Patrick Pryor ★★★★½ 4

  How did I ever forget The Brady Bunch Movie is Legit Good? It’s ground zero for that weird ‘90s nostalgia obsession for the ‘70s made even more unreal by today’s ‘90s mania. The harsh museum piece lighting and thrift chic set design in the Brady house look straight up unnerving like some deranged meticulous art installation from a bell bottomed Monkees bopping nostalgia nerd. And the flannel, soul patches, butt cuts, wallet chains, and occasional grunge and college rock jams seem garish broad and impossible. Way to provide double time travel to cartoon eras that never really existed, Brady Bunch Movie! I love how the whole production feels like a Redd Kross album come to life (in both good and…

  How many meetings and angry phone calls did it take for them to decide this movie shouldn't have a laugh track
