I first saw this movie back in middle school when one of my sisters got the DVD from RedBox. At the time, it seemed exciting. But now, watching it as an adult, it was honestly boring.
The acting throughout the film is poor - nothing about the performances feels believable. I won't name names, but the cast just didn't deliver.
A lot of the content felt dark and demonic at times.
The way the game controls people, pressures them, and rewards their submission reminded me of something symbolic of the mark of the beast - where people give up their identity and morals just to belong.
The film should've been rated R.
The level of sensitivity, including nudity, was too much for a PG-13 rating. Even the violence felt weak and poorly executed. Combine that with bad CGI and awkward pacing, and the whole thing just falls apart. What could've been a meaningful story turned out to be a flashy, soulless mess.
Disappointing on every level.

After revisiting My Wife and Kids, I've significantly revised my opinion of the show. While marketed as a family sitcom, it leans heavily on sexual innuendos, suggestive dialogue, and mature themes that make it far from appropriate for younger audiences. The TV-PG rating feels misleading - a TV-MA classification would be more accurate based on the content.
The humor often falls flat, relying on crude jokes and juvenile gags that overshadow any positive messages the series might have intended to convey. The writing lacks consistency, and the tone frequently jumps between lighthearted moments and gratuitous, unnecessary explicitness.
Frankly, I regret spending time on this show. It's disappointing that producers invested so much into a series that ultimately feels shallow and misguided. For viewers looking for thoughtful, well-written comedy, this isn't it.
Even more troubling is the off-screen behavior of its star, Damon Wayans. His public defense of Bill Cosby - a convicted satanic predator - is inexcusable. Supporting or excusing such actions, especially when the victims are so many and so deeply affected, is not only morally wrong but deeply offensive. I cannot separate the art from the artist in this case, and it makes continuing to support the show feel irresponsible. Wayans's remarks should have cost him his household-name status, and I can no longer respect him for standing by such behavior.
Worse still are the broader cultural implications. Shows like this perpetuate the troubling trend of using shock value - particularly through sexual content - to gain attention, rather than offering anything of substance. It's a disservice to audiences and reflective of a larger issue in the entertainment industry, where fame too often comes from provocation instead of real talent.
In my view, My Wife and Kids caters to a very narrow audience and fails to offer meaningful entertainment. It's not just a missed opportunity - it's part of a broader problem that deserves to be taken seriously.
