Admiral Frank Beardsley returns to New London to run the Coast Guard Academy, his last stop before a probable promotion to head the Guard. A widower with eight children, he runs a loving but tight ship, with charts and salutes. The kids long for a permanent home. Helen North is a free spirit, a designer whose ten children live in loving chaos, with occasional group hugs. Helen and Frank, high school sweethearts, reconnect at a reunion, and it's love at first re-sighting. They marry on the spot. Then the problems start as two sets of kids, the free spirits and the disciplined preppies, must live together. The warring factions agree to work together to end the marriage.

Yours, Mine & Ours Audience Reviews

Hottoceame The Age of Commercialism
SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Steve Pulaski Besides having two punctuations in one simple title, Yours, Mine, and Ours has to be one of the most annoying remakes I've seen in recent years. Friday the 13th was a pretty annoying one, but because of context not content. How can anyone stay sane when there are eighteen kids running around, hyper speed for ninety tedious minutes? Jo Frost would lose her mind in this ruckus.Yours, Mine, and Ours is a remake of the 1968 film of the same name. Having never seen the original, from what I understand both films have eighteen kids, and the only major differences are the actors. Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda are replaced with Rene Russo and Dennis Quaid along with the kids which I won't take time explaining. But lets just say that coming from a teenager who doesn't want kids, this film was absolutely frightening.Frank Beardsley is a US Coast Guard Admiral widower who is managing eight kids. Helen North works as a designer and she has ten kids. Frank and Helen where sweethearts in High School, and are reunited after 25 years. After learning about each others kids they come up with the brilliant idea to marry and raise a family of eighteen. My first thought would be get the f**k out! Of course when raising eighteen kids of all different age groups the first thing that should come to your mind is let the kids meet and see if they form a tight bond. If not, maybe marriage isn't going to work. Nope. Not necessary. Without even consulting the kids (if you call a five minute estimated family talk when no kids can change the folks mind a consulting then okay) they make the indulgent move of marrying anyway. What a fun house. No one but the parents have any say in something that will effect their own life.So naturally, when the kids first meet everything goes haywire and fighting, bickering, hitting, beating, and arguing come constantly. The biggest problem is that Frank is shipshape (pun intended) and Helen lets the kids have freedom. Disciplined kids, free kids. Not seeing a very good connection. Maybe they should've RECONSIDERED marriage, and production on this film as well.The plus for the film was seeing both Drake Bell and Miranda Cosgrove in it. They worked for years on Drake & Josh and I've always favored both of them. I lost touch and interest with Drake Bell after he quit Drake & Josh , and as far as Miranda Cosgrove goes, once the first ten or so episodes of iCarly aired...lets leave it at that.One thing that angered me more than the film itself was Cartoon Network, the network I watched the film on. Not the fact that it was loaded with commercials, but how two big "C" and "N" mascots were popping up during the commercials. We're led to believe these bulky, headless annoyances are watching the movie with us and just getting off track? Why not make it believable and have the mascots actually say something that happens in the movie rather than have them ranting about turkey leftovers and football. Also the number of commercials making the viewers aware about "exercising" and "eating a healthy meal" uncountable and an even bigger annoyance than the mascots. Has childhood obesity become that much of a big deal that commercials alerting viewers of it's occurrence need to be on every kid's network. If kids are watching a movie on Cartoon Network, do you think they'll drop everything (in the middle of the movie" and dash outside to the nearest park and play a game? Logical, like the mascot's heads, is absent Yours, Mine, and Ours is what you would expect of a remake. A loud, overly cliché, annoying state of affairs that has Dennis Quaid being hit off a boat, in the head, or into a can of paint one too many times to be passable. I've been known to enjoy slapstick like the works of Carrot Top and Chris Farley, although I have standards set for where I want my slapstick. Being hit in the head five times or more in a single movie is way past my standards.Starring: Dennis Quaid, Rene Russo, Sean Faris, Jerry O'Connell, Drake Bell, Miranda Cosgrove, Lil' JJ, Danielle Panabaker. Directed by: Raja Gosnell.
dmills9 I found this film funny and a good time. There were a couple points that I thought weren't really suited to this leading man (Quaid), but other than that, the acting was great.I could feel chemistry between 'Mom & Dad' and also the tension between them. The kids also did a great job making the tension real as well as the affection they later have for each other (which we all knew was going to happen, but I'm not bothered by this sort of predictability as most films have many predictable moments and the ones that strive too hard to avoid it usually end up unsatisfying).Although I can't imagine a situation like theirs ever being successful in real life (two large, but vastly different families coming together), this film does very well in making you forget that just for a while.It's a clean film suitable for anybody. The charm, the characters, the story, the chemistry, the hijinks; all worthwhile reasons to watch this one.
xxxx_luca_xxxx The original "Yours, Ours, & Mine", which is a good movie on its own was not the same movie so why didn't they just call it a different movie. The movie break down, Yours...Ours...Mine, they forgot the mine part. Man & Woman meet, fall in love, meet each others children. Who would not meet their soon to be mate's children, before saying "I do"? So, is their going to be a Yours, mine, & ours part 2. To bring in the ours part, look at the original movie to help you make it. I like this movie, I really do...but they changed so many things. They might have just called it: Mine versus Yours or Mine & Yours, sometimes its good to change some of the original movie in a remake but not even mention the our part...wonder minds.
alejandra-dogz170496 Yours, Mine and Ours is a romantic-family comedy that brings all the already-seen jokes in movie history. Rene Russo is very badly cast, as she was already made for Jennifer Coolige's roles (like Fiona, in A Cinderella Story), and her face lacks the artsy-motherly face for Hellen White. The script was very lousy, the kids spoke our of turn, and the story was a great story, but the script ruined it all, as did Rene Russo. Sound effects snap the reality in half, not even a four-year-old can believe it. Raja Gosnell-once in for all, he proofs he could do a lot better, if he had better casting ability, and did choose amateur's to write the script.
