The Even Stevens Movie

I must admit that I am a HUGE fan of the show. I watch it all the time. Shia Labeouf is hillarious. Without him I don't think the show would exist. And without him this movie would not have been so good. But he was in it, and the movie was awesome. Tawny was her adorable self, and Twitty and Tom were pretty funny as well. I am not a big fan of Ren, and her part in the movie was pretty lame, but I would say everyone else was great. If this movie hadn't been made I don't think I would have laughed as hard last Friday as I did while watching it. I don't laugh out loud a lot to movies. But I did to this one!

10/10

This movie ROCKED! i thought it was great, plus i love "even stevens" and that made it even better! i don't want to give anything away if you haven't seen the movie yet, so i'll just say this: aren't mutai/jason and ren P-E-R-F-E-C-T FOR EACH OTHER?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Luv Ya'll, KhleozGrl

I had high hopes for this Even Stevens TV movie, which would officially serve as the series finale. The Stevens Family are selected as winners of a paradise vacation on an enchanted isle (Gilligan's Island-style), unaware that they're actually duped into starring on a reality TV show called Family Fake-Out. Of course, things go bad to worse when the family starts to turn against one another. Not too bad, but I think it could have been executed more, but we do have supporting roles by comedy greats Tim Meadows, the sneaky host and Dave Coulier as the rival host of a similar show.

This is one of the best movies I seen so far this summer. Shia LaBeouf, and Christy Carlson Romano give their funniest performances ever. They were funny in the series but they are more funny in the movie. Tom Virtue, and Donna Pescow give outstanding performances. This movie had a lot of funny in it but it could of had a funnier ending like someone fell off something or trip then end it, but it was still a great movie!

Now that I've got Disney+, I've been having fun re-watching some of the old Disney shows that I grew up on. One of my favorites, back in the day, was Even Stevens which starred a young Shia Labeouf and Christy Carlson Romano, respectively as Louis and Ren Stevens. Well, at the end of that series in June 2003, Disney released The Even Stevens Movie which served as the series finale. Even Stevens is a ridiculous sitcom which relies on slapstick comedy, pranks, and back-to-back goofiness to keep the laughs rolling through silly plots mostly consisting of the brother and sister duo outshining each other. Ren is the goodie two-shoes, perfect daughter, with an obsessive-compulsive pension for cleanliness, order, and organization. Whereas her goofy brother, Louis, is an inventive, creative misfit who, with the aid of his equally silly friends: Beans, Twitty, and Tawny, manages to get himself in over his head, often dragging his sister through the mud with him. Their parents and older sibling are just as wacky and dysfunctional, and therein lies the humor. The Even Stevens Movies, takes all the pranks, gags, and silly humor that you enjoyed in the 30 minute sitcom episodes, and stretches it into a full-blown movie taking place on some sort of Polynesian, pseudo-Hawaiian island that doesn't actually exist. Of course, because it's a film, it's got a slightly bigger budget and so you also have SNL alum, Tim Meadows, and Dave Coulier (aka: Uncle Joey from Full House). Despite it's flaws of which there are many (poor dialogue, terrible CGI effects, etc...), it still manages to entertain from beginning to end. It's fun. It's silly. It doesn't make much sense but it's a blast!
