They Couldn't Decide What they Wanted To Do With This Movie!
* Parts of this movie seem exactly like the TV show: Beaver & Wally wear clothing styles right out of the 1950's, they are basically good kids who get into mischief, and they have loving parents.
* Parts of this movie seem like they were going for parody: Wally about to say "ass" to his parents, Mrs. Cleaver telling Eddie to "cut the crap", and Wally playing "spin the bottle".
* Parts of this movie seem like they were attempting to modernize "Leave It To Beaver": Mrs. Cleaver exposing her midriff while working in her garden, Beaver getting a computer from Aunt Martha, Ward & June watching "Home Improvement", and Gilbert now a black kid who speaks in ebonics.
Imo, they failed at all three different attempts. The sad thing is Hollywood hasn't gotten any better in the 21st century. God does Hollywood suck!
