QUICK TAKE:
Comedy: Fathers of two contrasting families spend time together at their church's family camp.
PLOT:

Grace Ackerman (LEIGH-ALLYN BAKER) has had enough of her husband, Tommy's (TOMMY WOODARD), always-on-the-phone, workaholic behavior. Accordingly, she demands that he join her and their kids -- 16-year-old Hannah (CECE KELLY) and her younger brother, Henry (JACOB MICHAEL WADE) -- at their church's family camp retreat.

Tommy begrudgingly goes along but is less than pleased to learn that they must share an unairconditioned yurt with another family. They're the Sanders, and patriarch Eddie (EDDIE JAMES) is an overzealous chiropractor who seemingly has the perfect family with his wife Victoria (GIGI ORSILLO) and their kids, Barb (KESLEE GRACE BLALOCK) and Ed Jr (ELIAS KEMUEL).

As Tommy ends up forced into spending more time with Eddie than he'd like, he learns that family is more important than work, that he should have faith in God, and that not all is always as it initially seems.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
It's a comedy about camping, so it's possible that might be enticing to some.
WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG
For some action and thematic elements.

I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
