Critics Consensus: The House squanders a decent premise and a talented cast on thin characterizations and a shortage of comic momentum.

Reviews

Film Frenzy

Matt Brunson

Even movies like Requiem for a Dream and Midnight Express contain more laughs than The House.

The stars play the hands they've been dealt as best they can, but the script is so feeble that it's no wonder the film is a bust.

Unless you're new to the Will Ferrell or Amy Poehler school of humor, this is as generic a "comedy" as you might expect.

They say the House always wins. Unfortunately, that's not the case in this hit-and-miss comedy from first-time director (and co-writer) Andrew Jay Cohen, but there are still some guilty-pleasure laughs to be had along the way.
