Are we there yet? ** Fair family fare
It's not a movie I can recommend to anyone over age 14, but for parents looking for a couple of hours of DVD entertainment this seems a safe bet. Ice Cube is a "Playa" who is reaching the age that most of his peers have moved into family mode. He meets a "Fine" woman and would like to get closer but is nearly knocked over when he spies her 2 children run up to meet her on the street. Like most kids from divorced parents they have the fantasy that "mom and dad will get back together..." and actively interfere with any man who shows any interest in their mother. Enter Ice Cube with his new Lincoln Navigator, his "blingage" and his ambivalent attitude toward children. The kids are not 'sugar and spice and everything nice,' but survivors who stick together. It was sort of a "Home alone" meets "Cannonball Run." By the halfway point I found myself saying..."Aren't they there yet?"
