Really a good movie for family viewing. Not the most professionally done, however, still funny and fun to watch. Clean language. Some things might need explaining to a very young child of what police officers go through on the job at times, but nothing that is too drastic. Kept in a light hearted sense. Whereas older children know police work isn't always that funny.

This is good old fashion, simple, family-orientated entertainment.
Simple, and a bit corny at times, but each episode always communicates good values and morals.
Enjoy!

Well, this was a good family film and I think the PG rating showed that. On that note, this movie should not be taken for anything with a real film-style intrinsic value.

The story is about a man whose family has been chasing the legend of a treasure for centuries, played by Nicolas Cage.  Unlike the rest of his family, Cage's character discovers the first clue but in doing so also creates a rival for the treasure. Of course the goal is to get the treasure.

Overall I liked the movie.  The movie had humor, action, and just enough who-dunit to make the movie watcher not already know most of the plot.  So, if you're looking for decent entertainment for the whole family or just you, then this is it, but don't expect to be awed and inspired.

Great family entertainment at a good price.  I enjoy animated movies so this movie was right for me. Relax and enjoy.

Fun, funny, entertaining. Good enough for a family, I believe. Give a go, you will not be disappointed. Probably.

A nice, simple story, with good acting. Not a "blockbuster" movie, but for an upbeat movie with a plausible plot and good cast, it was fine. Also, good for the entire family I would say.

I used to watch this movie all the time. Not so much because it's one of the greatest dog-centric films ever made, but just because of its pleasing nature. It's cute, it's funny, and charming, and entertaining. It doesn't go overboard in any of those areas, but has just enough of each to make it a nice movie to watch. Somewhat geared toward adults language-wise? Perhaps, yes. But there's nice acting from dogs and people alike and some memorable scenes (and, yes, some violent ones). But naturally, Bingo always comes through and saves the day. This is a fun family film.

We enjoyed this movie as a family. The overall message is positive and the places visited are quite varied and beautiful and of course the birds and bird call are interesting.

"Mr. Hobbs Takes A Vacation" is one of the most enjoyable family films ever made. When it was released back in 1962, it was a big hit. But if you are a sophisticate, don't write it off just yet. The plot is simple: Harried St. Louis banker Roger Hobbs (James Stewart) is looking forward to a quiet, romantic vacation with his wife Peggy (Maureen O'Hara) who, unknown to him, has instead opted for a family reunion in a rented Northern California beach house. Not only has she included her teenage daughter Katie and younger son Danny but her married daughters and their families as well. The beach house turns out to be a monstrosity which Hobbs describes as "Dragonwyck". When their daughter Susan and her husband Stan show up with their bratty kids, things quickly get worse. The family is complete when daughter Jane and her husband Byron arrive with their infant daughter. By now, both Mr. and Mrs. Hobbs are somewhat disenchanted with this "family reunion" as Susan and her husband fight until he walks out on them, while Jane's husband takes up with the local bathing suit-clad vamp Manika. Daughter Katie meanwhile, grows more sullen by the day, sulking because of her new braces and brother Danny simply glues himself to the television set. Add an unhappy Finnish maid and you really have a recipe for disaster. But thanks to the delightful performance by Stewart, the laughs come thick and fast. His dry wit enlivens the film and almost single-handedly keeps it alive. And I mean alive because in spite of a capable cast including Fabian, John McGiver and Marie Wilson, the film belongs to Stewart. He does wonders with his hapless father role and keeps the audience in his corner every second. With the support of the eternally beautiful O'Hara (who's hardly anyones idea of a grandmother) and a memorable Henry Mancini score, "Mr. Hobbs" may depict a harrowing "vacation" but it's one the the viewer will thoroughly enjoy taking. The film has just been released on a beautiful widescreen DVD, with an original trailer and a few other extras. Bon Voyage! [phillindholm]

Fun holiday movie - a bit predictable, but still quite charming. Two singles meet up through online ads and team up to save each other during family gatherings by pretending to be the "+1." The main actors have good chemistry to make for a believable pairing. I also enjoyed the mix of different faiths - Catholic and Jewish - and celebrations.

This was a good pick for our family night movie.  Everyone enjoyed the action and had a few laughs too.

I've seen this family film many times when I was a kid. Now, it has become a reminder of my childhood. Unfortunately, it isn't as great as the other films that I've watched when I was a kid (like The Land Before Time & Flight of the Navigator). It's very average for an animal flick. But it still has likeable characters, a well-written script, and some nice humor. "Bingo" can still enjoyable for families from all acround the country, but you are warned. There are indeed some fairly dark and intense scenes in some parts, so the little kids might be a bit frightened.

Grade: B

Perfect family entertainment in the best possible sense. The clever and fast-paced story and humor appeals to adults as well as kids, and the stop-motion animation is outstanding. Makes much of the current high-budget "family" animations look like lazy hack work.

Funny comedy based on mistaken identity. Great, clean family fun. Children aged 9 - 14 and parents were all laughing at it.

Good use of difference in British/American cultural approach to life.

Despite whatever the critics may say, this movie is fun to watch. Okay, so it may not have power, and it may not have Disney's charm(which they're  rapidly losing), but this movie's quite all right to pull out every once in  a while. It doesn't have anything that kids may take the wrong way, and the  songs are simply delightful. Little Drops of Rain is nice. For animation  buffs and young kids alike. Especially for fans of the Loony Toons.
