Elisha Cuthbert's Parents Are Getting A Divorce .......2004-11-03

The plot: This film has nothing to do with a house or who gets it. Here a family of six, experiences a separation but in the end the parents get back together. Not too complex. This family is so goodie goodie they make the Bradys look like the Bundys. The parents don't even fight, why the Separation?

The four kids are so good looking it's ridiculous. Elisha Cuthbert is the oldest daughter, Ricky Mabe (Elisha's boyfriend in `Believe') is the older brother, and the two younger sisters are played by Emma and Sally Isherwood. What eugenics lab did the casters find these Aryan super children in?

George Takei also appears as a construction worker who baby sits the kids. His character comes across like Michael Jackson at a Boy Scout camping trip.

The funniest thing about `Who Gets The House' is how the filmmakers vainly try to cover up how they're in Canada. They refer to Minneapolis, yet we see no footage of Minneapolis. The actors can't hide their Canadian accents and the credits look like the employee roster at Euro Disney.

As far as Elisha Cuthbert movies go this one is pretty good. At least the production quality is OK. Unlike most of Elisha's B Canadian movies, this one doesn't look like it was shot with a cam quarter. A surprising change.

Elisha is 16 here and really hot, just before she started `24'. She gets second billing and just to warn you she's not in every scene.

Good family film from Feature Films..........2003-12-29

From Feature Films for Families, a wholesome family entertainment company promoted by James Dobson, Billy Graham, Dr. Laura, and others. This is a "live action" movie (not a cartoon) about four children stuck in the middle of a divorce. Sounds grim, but it's really not...a good drama with some comedy added in.

Comes with a parents discussion guide which gets to the heart of the matter: what are family values? are there communication techniques that can break down barriers causing misunderstandings? we can't choose our family, but can we choose our friends? and more...

A good, solid, entertaining movie that has a strong moral to the story.

who gets the house?.......2003-01-17

A GOOD FAMILY FILM FOR ALL AGES. THE CHILDREN TRY TO
GET THEIR MOM AND DAD BACK TOGETHER. THE CHILDREN ASKED
FOR CUSTODY OF THE HOUSE AND THE PARENTS HAD TO TAKE TURNS
STAYING WITH THEM. THOUGHT THIS WAS A VERY NOVEL IDEA.

BOTH MOM AND DAD LOVED EACH OTHER BUT WERE UNABLE TO SOLVE THE
PROBLEM.

AN EXCELLENT ENDING ON THE MOVIE AND GOOD LESSONS ON LOVE.

A great movie.......2001-07-04

Don (Carl Marotte) and Rebecca Reece (Sophie Lorain) form an unlikely pair, at least unlikely since Don has changed so much since 18 years ago when they got married. And how unfortunate for the four kids: Brian (Ricky Mabe), Emily (Elisha Cuthbert), Heidi (Emma Isherwood) and Amy (Sally Isherwood) that Don and Rebecca have decided to separate. But Jennifer Rhodes (Fatuma Kayembe) -- the brains of the group -- has plans, at least for the kids.

After a number of years as a professional architect, Don grows sullen and much too somber when compared with Rebecca who has always been bright and a little flighty. But, she made Don laugh -- until recently. Now there is a stern and so proper husband living with a still fun-loving wife. Not a good combination. And how four very pleasant and intelligent kids were produced by this dueling duo is beyond me. But it is just a movie.

When Jennifer, the daughter of a lawyer and a very good friend of Emily, the oldest of the Reece kids learns of the plans of Don and Rebecca, she remembers some of her father's legal dealings and arranges for a judge to draw up an order of possession of the house should the parent split, i.e., who gets the house.

When Don and Rebecca finally tell the kids they are separating, the kids were prepared. The legal order of the judge was that if the parents split up, the kids get the house and the parents get alternating weekly visitation. But still the kids are not at all happy with the separation, so they devise devices to get mom and dad back together. And that is probably the best part of this very, very good movie. I will not spoil any more of it for you and hope that you find the tape of this movie....
