- Critics' reviews
-
-
"As stuffed with beguiling performances - some of them unexpectedly good - as its script is overstuffed."
-
"A potentially interesting tale flailing haplessly in the quicksand of holiday-movie formula."
-
"There are many ways to define the shrieking awfulness of The Family Stone, from the general lack of wit to the cheap exploitation of cancer to its casual cruelty"
-
"The potential for moral confusion in a liberal-minded family is scrutinized with more ambiguity in this good-natured comic subversion of the holiday get-together."
-
"Parker has a great time being the anti–Carrie Bradshaw while Keaton-as-matriarch is a particular joy -- funny, beautiful, elegant, touching, and at ease with a familiar, get-out-your-hankies holiday subplot."
-
"This is the best adult holiday film in a while."
-
"Spends too much time on unconvincing romantic-comedy contrivances to be consistently engaging."
