I got a real kick out of the cliché humor in this...and could see lots of the characters flaws and attributes in several people I know. I really enjoyed this.
I cant wait to see the other films from these same producers. I do recommend seeing the "Its Latter-Day night" Stand up comedy DVD. Both lead characters from this movie, among others are featured....and its hilarious. I had to keep pausing it because I was laughing so hard I was afraid I would miss the next joke.
I am very happy to see some big screen, well done, feature movies that are clean, and family friendly. This is one I would recommend to audiences of all ages. It is about time that the general population gets a chance to see that clean material that is age appropriate for everyone can be just as funny, and well done as any comedy. It is such a nice change, and I cant wait for more productions.

These movies are hidden gems, my family loves Church Ball, down and derby, inspired guns, the unitards and this one, the home teachers. I always bring a new one to our family get togethers at our lake home and everyone finds them entertaining. Another movie we love is heaven bound with Torrey Martin, it's a classic. We love these family friendly comedies with a faith element in them and the comedic lines you can repeat over and over again. I'm glad I stumbled upon church ball which in turn helped me find all these other comedy gold movies that are rare unless you seek them out, don't just watch what your Roku recommends or what's in theaters, there are a lot of great movies out there that are clean and incredibly enjoyable. The home teachers doesn't disappoint.
I'm not LDS or familiar with the religion beyond NBA player Shawn Bradley and former NFL players Jim McMahon and Steve Young. (If that's even accurate.)
And I don't know if the filmmakers are to blame for the deception I'm about to describe either. All those disclaimers out of the way...
My girlfriend and I were renting movies at Blockbuster, looking for a comedy that her little brother (10) could watch with us. She came across "The Home
Teachers," and we rented it despite our being unable to recognize any of the
"stars." Important note: There was NOTHING on the box that denoted this movie was about LDS.
So imagine our surprise when we get home, pop in the video, and see the
previews for other "Mormon movies," followed by the opening scene with the
blond guy sitting in a Bible class. (We gave up on it after seeing his cliched attempts to evade the straitlaced guy.)
Nothing against the filmmakers--unless they were willing participants in this deception. I'm sure they wanted to make a funny movie that LDS folks could
enjoy. But there should have been some mention on the original movie box or
the Blockbuster box, stating that this was a Mormon movie. Especially if this was an intentional omission in order to be an undercover venue for
proselytizing.
Oh well, there's four bucks I'll never see again.

Kurt Hale and John Moyer's look into typical Mormon life shows humor in what most LDS people experience on a monthly basis. This comedy is life with physical humor on par with "Tommy Boy".
It is refreshing to see a movie that the whole family can enjoy and laugh at. The writer and director created a comedy without resorting to crude or morally debasing material.
This takes place in one day at the end of the month. Murphy visits these two bumbling home teachers every moment in everything they do as they attempt to visit 3 families.
A great ride!

I'm surprised at how the majority of these reviews are so negative. Perhaps it's based in large part on expectations, but I came into the movie expecting pretty much the same caliber of film that I'd seen from these film makers before, and I was pleasantly surprised that they had raised the bar. My wife and I both noticed that production values are much better for this movie than the other 'Mormon' films we'd seen. The lighting, sound, and music seemed very well done. Of course, I realize that production doesn't count for much if the script is a dog, but I felt this film came through on that account as well. No, we weren't rolling in our seats with laughter, but there was good chemistry between the two leads, and I never felt myself cringing (as I find myself in many movies) thinking, "no one talks like that" or "that's not something somebody would say." They kept it pretty real...over-the-top in humor, but real in its characterizations. Perhaps the best compliment that I can give is that this film was funnier than the last few so-called blockbuster Hollywood comedies that I've seen. Well done. I may be watching this one again.

- WissenswertesThe Home Teaching program was introduced to the Mormon or LDS Church in 1963, announced by the church leader President David O. McKay. It was practiced for 55 years, with two-man teams home-teaching Mormon families once a month. Then in April 2018, General Conference, the church leader President Russell M. Nelson officially announced that the home-teaching program would be retired and be replaced with a program called Ministering, which serves family members' needs.
