Family Plan is an absolutely delightful light comedy about a woman who fakes her marital status in order to get a job. Well, everything seems to be perfect 'till her boss moves into the house next door -- and she has to find a way to continue this sham! Of course, the always adorable Tori Spelling falls in love with the actor hired to portray her husband!

This movie is so cute, and almost seems like the kind of movie that Doris Day would have made years ago. So, if you enjoy a little screwball romantic comedy, I highly recommend Family Plan!

**** SPOILER ALERT *********

This was an enjoyable movie. The premise is far-fetched, but if you are willing to sit back and be entertained, then it's fun. I took off a star because it was disturbing that an employee's personal life was used as the basis for determining if she was a good fit for the company. She retained her job because she pretended to be married! How lame is that? By all reports, she was a great employee, and this never should have been an issue. Have they heard of Equal Employment Opportunity?

As for the characters involved, and the moral message, the movie is rated PG. I doubt very seriously if anyone past the age of seven would believe that living this lie is ok. So kids may enjoy it and laugh at it, but I'd hope parents see it as a vehicle for discussing why the lying, and the situations depicted, were wrong. This isn't a movie I'd buy to keep small children entertained without adult supervision. But I'm an adult, and I'm not going to think it's ok to lie to keep my job. Why would I want to work somewhere if I had to pretend to be something I'm not just to keep my job?

When I just relaxed into the entertainmet and watched the movie, it was hilarious. It wasn't until after I thought about it that it rankled a bit. But I am planning to watch it again. And it will make me laugh and smile again every time it's played. Just don't take it seriously, and everything will be fine.

I can tell this movie is probably a little on the cheesey side, but if you are a Tori Spelling fan you don't care at all and will fall in love with it!

A cute but standard chick flick. It is good enough for a quick bit of entertainment but nothing thrilling. THe acting is okay but the story line could use some fine tuning.

I stayed home sick one day and there was nothing on tv, so I decided to check out the free movies on demand channel. This was one of the options. I actually watched it twice! It's a great lighthearted romantic comedy that was extremely entertaining. Sit back, have a laugh and enjoy!

I watched 'Family Plan' for the first time on the Hallmark Channel. I started looking for it on DVD or VHS and at the time, no one had it. I'm so glad amazon is coming out with it. You won't regret watching this! It had me laughing out loud so many times. But the ending is sweet, a great gift for yourself or someone else.

This is a cute little flick. I like Tori Spelling and think she did a good job in the role. Cute chic flick

For any family that holds to any kind of traditional moral standard, this movie is deplorable. Maybe if one thinks lying is 'cutsie' it might be comical. But, I find nothing amusing about a whole movie premised on a knowing lie. Then, to bring a young girl into lying as well, it becomes even more abominable. Finally, to see that everything becomes 'okay' because the boss is known to lie as well, we reached the straw that breaks the camel's back. So, if you have any desire to instill truthfulness in your kids, stay away from this movie. Lying causes too much damage to make light of it.

great,as described condition, vendor at no fault here but this movie was lame and very drawn out.
