Now I've always been a die-hard brady bunch fan; I love the show and I love the first 2 movies. This one I couldn't even finish. It was a horrible, horrible movie.
Unfortunately I couldn't take it back and demand my money back because DVD's are non returnable after opened. I threw it in the trash.
GARY COLE CHANNELING ROBERT REED GETS A STAR February 13, 2006

The only reason to watch this installment of the Brady Bunch Movie Franchise is to marvel at Gary Cole's dead-on impersonation of the late, great Robert Reed. This from a guy who once played an all-night radio talk show host on TV? Cole even physically resembles the Brady dad.
Too bad everyone else makes you moan for the originals. Though, I must admit, the producers/casting directors keep on getting great Marcias.
Oh, and the plot -- others have stressed that the plot is ludicrous and patently improbable, but that's not the real problem. The issue is this: would Mike Brady REALLY behave this way? It doesn't matter if you have to suspend disbelief; this is make-believe, after all. But a scriptwriter's first rule is DO NOT VIOLATE THE RULES OF YOUR CHARACTER'S UNIVERSE.And in the Brady Universe, Mike and Carol would not behave as they do in this flick.

This movie wasn't that bad.I like it better than A Very Brady Sequel.Marcia and Mike were good.Everyone else was too old,young,or just didn't look like the character.
Not Brady, not funny February 8, 2005

"The Brady Bunch in The White House" is like Chinese food that's been left on the counter overnight - unappetizing and best left in the box.
My husband and I loved the first two Brady Bunch movies so we couldn't wait to order "The Brady Bunch in The White House". We assumed it had also been a theatrical release. If we had known it was a made-for-TV movie, we never would have ordered it.
If we had watched it on TV, we would have commented on how terrible it was after the first fifteen minutes and turned the channel to watch a rerun of The Simpsons. However, we paid $20 for it so we watched every agonizingly horrible moment of it.
Obviously, this TV movie did not have the budget of the earlier theatrical releases ("The Brady Bunch Movie" and "A Very Brady Sequel") so they could not afford to hire decent writers, a decent director or a decent cast. The actors playing the kids were not recognizable as the Brady kids with the possible exception of the young woman playing Marcia although she was not nearly as skilled as Christine Taylor from the first two movies. The "girl" who played Jan looked to be well in her twenties, Cindy was too small and almost incomprehensible with her lisp. The other kids were at least as bad.
The actress playing Alice brought no "Alice-ness" to the role. Instead she was like a stranger in the family and a damned unfunny one at that.
I had hoped that Saul Rubineck would add some much needed humour to this insipid script but although he was more professional than most of the other actors that littered the screen, he was not given a single funny line. But then nobody else was either.
Besides the obvious problems with this movie - bad script, bad acting, bad direction and bad casting, the main reason this movie doesn't work is that in this movie the Brady's are a part of the modern world. In the first two films, the Brady's not only don't live in the modern world, they don't acknowledge that there IS a modern world. That's the joke. They left the joke out of this film.
The bottom line is this movie is a stinker. Skip it. Don't buy it. Don't rent it. Don't waste two hours watching it on TV.
