leonard klady of "variety" wrote, "for five years back in the early 1970s, u.s. tv homes were in the thrall of "the brady bunch". two decades after their small-screen demise, the clean-cut crew is back in mythic form as "the brady bunch movie". part homage, part spoof, the deft balancing act is a clever adaptation—albeit culled from less than pedigreed source material." roger ebert of the "chicago sun-times" wrote, "the film establishes a bland, reassuring, comforting brady reality – a certain muted tone that works just fine but needs, i think, a bleaker contrast from outside to fully exploit the humor. "the brady bunch movie" is rated pg-13, which is a compromise: the bradys themselves live in a pg universe, and the movie would have been funnier if when they ventured outside it was obviously wayne's world." he and gene siskel also agreed that the film offers charmingly bright and silly set decoration but fails to deliver genuine laughs. common sense media said that "for those who grew up watching the tv show, "the brady bunch movie" is deeply satisfying and the best part is its nostalgia. sure, it's fun to see the bradys treated as freaks. but the heart of the film is a campy, affectionate interpretation of the tv show."
