The "Unauthorized Full House Movie" from Lifetime is so bad I feel like quoting Roger Ebert's review of "North" but I don't want to sully the man's memory by pairing him with this lousy movie! Justin Mader as Dave Coulier and Joey Gladstone is just horrible! I thought this movie would show the real man as a funny guy who was doing material beneath him, but God, I was wrong! This movie portrayal of Dave Coulier shows a guy who can't control his gas and who tells awful jokes. Garrett Brawith does have a Bob Saget vibe about him but he is so dirty and seems proud of it! Justin Gaston as John Stamos does resemble the real actor and so does Dakota Guppy as young Jodie Sweetin. This movie shows the Olsen twins as 2 year old girls who shared the role of Michelle, but Michelle was a baby of a few months old when the show started and she had no lines to learn. The house looks nothing like the original and this movie has no drama to it! I think they should have done a movie about Jodie Sweetin because with her there was drama! Her book talks about her drug abuse and alcoholism and the custody fights she had with both ex-husbands. Now, I would watch that!

Although a dramatization, it's always nice to see what people are really like and not the characters they may be typecast as after a long running TV show.The movie focuses more on the adults than the children. Special attention is paid to Bob Saget and his history before the show and concerns and antics during it. Dave Coulier's extra talents get limited attention and John Stamos is portrayed as the playboy that isn't taken seriously. The movie didn't get his oversized mullet from the first season right but that's a minor complaint.The acting wasn't bad so very watchable for a TV movie if this was a show you watched when it aired and wanted to know some of the real people and personalities involved outside the camera lens.

Pretty interesting account showcasing the lives of the FULL HOUSE cast while the hit series was in production from 1987–1995 (and book-ended by relevant events outside of the show's run), with a primary focus on Stamos (Gaston), Coulier (Mader) and Saget (Brawith). Very well-casted, and its pacing is impressively smooth. A main setback is the lack of major conflict warranting such a "dramatic story". It's also a bit strange how the characters can say they wish their real lives were as simple as FULL HOUSE when the show was about a young widower and his three motherless daughters.... Still, kudos to the attention to detail—they even make sure to cover Posey as Danny Tanner in the unaired pilot.★★★ (out of four)

Just plain horrible! There are things about Bob Sagat I just didn't need to know! The guys acted less mature than the girls (kids)! If it was really like that in real life, that's sad... just plain sad. Horrible movie! May have ruined Full House for me, but I will try to watch it and forget this movie. 😬Okay guess it needs more words so terrible worst movie I've ever seen. I love full house but hate this movie. Guys don't seriously act that way in real life do they if they do that pathetic. Not a fan of Bob Sagat anymore if he truly acted that way. Ugh Seriously I have to add more than this for the post to count! Why do I have to say so much???
