My Family Ratings & Reviews
Newsday
Gene Seymour
It is evocative well-crafted and performed with verve and passion by a first-rate cast of Latino actors.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Barbara Vancheri
Smits gives a wonderful performance in a film that also stars Esai Morales, Edward James Olmos and actors without household names but with equal talent.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
The warmth of My Family's characters and humor, the lush-ness of its cinematography and local color, and the universality of its family and sibling conflicts, make for pleasurable company.
Dallas Observer
Matt Zoller Seitz
One of the most satisfying dramas I've ever seen.
L.A. Weekly
Kristal Brent Zook
Were this superb drama nothing more than a rich exploration of family, it would have been more than enough. But Nava and his cowriter, wife Anna Thomas, offer up layers and nuances.
Salt Lake Tribune
Sean P. Means
My Family/Mi Familia is a chronicle of Mexican-American life, but it's more than that. Its a universal portrait of family ties, a film to which everyone can relate.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
The last segment is the best, so much so that one wishes Nava had left out the first two parts and concentrated on fleshing out the third section.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
There's a fearlessness about My Family that commands respect. It goes after both big issues and small moments. Most of all, it beats with an unabashed love of family that in the end, becomes admirable, even inspiring.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Michael H. Price
Mi Familia cannot help but touch the heart and soul of anyone who sees it.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
You'll often be conscious of the shortcomings of the writing, but My Family will win you over all the same.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
Director Gregory Nava does manages to communicate , a survival spirit that is energizing.
Arizona Republic
Bob Fenster
While My Family shares one family's joy, triumphs and tragedies, the film fails to probe deeper into the family dynamic.
New York Times
Caryn James
A grandly ambitious, warmhearted, wildly uneven movie.
Variety
Todd McCarthy
Tale is recounted in broad strokes, bright colors and with a great heart, which puts it over.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Your head may insist you resist the unashamed sentimentality of My Family, but your heart will encourage you to give in, and for once your heart will be right.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Stack
For all its dramatic power, there's abundant humor in the film, too, the humor of a culture as it blends slowly, sometimes painfully, into the big mix of America. My Family is a beautiful sight throughout.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
Gregory Nava obviously wants My Family to be a sweeping saga, but it's so crowded with characters and plot that there's not enough room left to swing a broom.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Their story is the story of one Mexican-American family, but it is also in some ways the story of all families. Watching it, I was reminded of my own family's legends and heroes and stray sheep, and the strong sense of home.
Austin Chronicle
Alison Macor
Mi Familia's cast represents some powerhouse acting talents, and yet the film loses steam because of weak dialogue and underdeveloped characters.
Entertainment Weekly
Passion is abundant in My Family.
