The trailer has you thinking this would be just a comedy with 2 families that have nothing in common. While there is still that element, I find it amazing at just how much preaching is interspersed. But it does kinda' mi.ic what we see today: people with many flaws and defects laying in judgement of a family/individuals just trying to cope in today's world. All the pressure being put on the "father figure" to not only provide 100% for his family and helping to raise the kids, but also with the expectation of being "perfect" while the wives don't work to help with things like expenses. There are places in the movie that are funny, but for us it just wasn't often enough for them being funny without going into some preachy aspect trying to make it work.
Eventually the imperfections of the family doing all the judging is revealed to be anything but, however that came along a bit too late in the movie to appreciate it.
