Ice Cube has turned his frown upside down with the family-friendly screwball road movie Are We There Yet? We know the actor/rapper can use his trademark scowl to be funny (the Friday and Barbershop series), or to be mean (Boyz n the Hood)--but can he use it to melt kids' hearts? That's the question Are We There Yet? answers with a resounding yes for youngsters in the audience (which will be the lions' share), but it'll probably be an emphatic shrug for the grownups. The contrived plot has Cube playing a wannabe-player (as in ladies' man) and ex-player (as in washed-up minor league baseball star) who now owns a sports memorabilia business. His partner, (Jay Mohr) is just a throwaway, as is the talented Nia Long, the single mom that Cube sets his blinged-out sights on. To try get in her good graces, he offers to transport her two bratty kids in his pride-and-joy Lincoln Navigator for a joy ride to a distant city where she's attending an emergency business meeting so they can have a New Year's Eve celebration together. This kiddies' version of Road Trip and Planes, Trains and Automobiles has its cute moments, but plenty more gross-out moments which will please the kids to no end, especially as the Navigator gets more and more trashed. Suffice it to say they all learn about each others' good sides and hearts are suitably melted all around--until after the credits roll, then you'll probably forget about the whole thing.--Ted Fry, Amazon.com
Synopsis
Ice Cube plays Nick, a playboy bachelor and sports memorabilia collector who dates a divorced mother of two young kids who never like the men their mom dates. Things go awry when Nick offers to drivethe kids from Portland to Vancouver where their mother is stuck for work.

This film is a very funny family film. There are elements of it that made me laugh out loud as I related to scenes where the journey mimicked some real life events, especially the "rushing to the loo" part. I enjoyed watching it with my daughter and would recommend it.

Excellent film!! If you want a light-hearted family film suitable for all ages buy this. I'm not going to talk 'acting techniques' or any of that pompous blurb, it's just a good fun film that had me laughing along with my daughter and isn't that what humour is supposed to be all about? So, lighten up all you wannabe lovvies and enjoy the film for what it is :)

This movie had me in stitches and the kids watch it constantly, a great family film, packed with laughs, it shows the lengths men will go to get the woman they want and the measures kids will take to stop it happening.

LEAVE YOUR BRAIN AT WORK
Don`t think for one minute that this film is anything other than a kids movie because it isn`t. Don`t look for some deep meaning or racial thing `cos it`s not there, just bad... Read more

Childs play
Too much similar to home alone and is kind of scary by the kids acting. ICE CUBE is fine acting in this movie but there are some aweful acter-est in it.
