IF YOU LIKED THE SERIES...

If you liked the series Growing Pains you will enjoy this movie. You will be surprised to see how Chrissy turned out, if you didn't like or didn't watch the series then don't bother watching this movie. If you did like this series then this movie will be worth 2 hours of your time.

Awesome Reunion Show

I love the Growing Pains Reunion Movie...I was also a big fan of the show growing up...it was great...I loved that Carol finally got her moment to shine...it was great to see her healthy and finally happy...Most of the people that did not like the movie didn't like the show...so why did you watch it???? I thought it was a great conclusion to the show...hey and maybe a sequel to it would not be a bad idea after all....

Bad Production/Direction/Etc.

Couldn't they get a better director and producer? This was by far a worse production than the original series episodes. The audio sounds like they are in a can all of the time with echos, they have to yell to be heard, there is so much background noise and music as compared to the original. It is good that the canned laughter is gone, though. Also, the camera angles are horrible, mostly low and pointing up. Hard to watch. I made it through, though, as I wanted to see how everything ended up and I love these characters.

The Seavers Return

The Seavers return Yes. I liked how Mike was doing Advertisements. I hated it when Jason was writing books. I am happy Mike married Kate. I liked the part when Ben was driving and got arrested. In the movie they should have had the theme song right after Jason said "Check Please. Give it to him." That is when they should have put the song. They didn't have it. This was the best movie ever. They need a sequel though. They should put it on Video and DVD.

Good family movie.

This is a fairly good movie. A good family film, but best if you already know the series. The continuing story of the Seaver family is worth watching, especially if you enjoyed the 80's series. I recommend it as a family movie, but there is a lot of things in it that may confuse a younger audience.

Trivia
During Jason's speech to the older women, he says that the only other good thing about Titanic (1997), aside from Céline Dion, was the kid with the blue lips, Leonardo DiCaprio. Leonardo DiCaprio starred on this show during the last season.

Goofs
Chrissy was 6 years old in the final season of the original show. The family has been in Washington D.C. for 8 years, but Chrissy is now 17 (this coincides with the actress' actual age.) She should be 14.
