All but the most easily pleased kids will be bored as can be, and anyone who has fond memories of TV's Leave It to Beaver would probably rather not besmirch them. Full Review |

2.5/4 |
It doesn't quite work, but some of Leave it to Beaver is a gentle little time-waster that will probably please young children and evoke some nostalgia in their parents . . . er, grandparents. Full Review |

Leave It to Beaver just stumbles about in a bland, irony-deprived suburbia that denies the movie any juice or bite and renders the Cleaver family even duller than it was. Full Review |

1.5/4 |
Why? That's the question foremost in my mind when I consider this latest motion picture retread of a defunct television series. Why was this movie made in the first place? Full Review |
