Movie Review
Tommy Ackerman has nothing against church. Hey, the guy goes to church for, like, whole minutes at a time.
He appreciates family, too. Why, his family’s the reason why that he spends most of his time working. It’s not like Hannah’s going to pay for college herself , right? Certainly not when she spends all her time buried in her phone screen. And 10-year-old Henry? Well, he needs support, too. Monetary support.
Tommy doesn’t even have anything against camp, either. At least not in theory.
But church-based family camp?
“Church camp is just so … Jesus-y ,” he tells wife, Grace.
But Grace is unswayed. She believes that family camp just might be the ticket to patching the holes in this leaky clan of hers—the key to keeping this nuclear unit from going nuclear. It’s great that Tommy’s such a good provider, she tells him. But his kids need more. She needs more. “We barely get to see you,” Grace tells Tommy. “And when we do, you’re not present.”
So Tommy reluctantly acquiesces, and the Ackermans head to camp—high expectations, bad attitudes and several smartphones in tow. And hey, maybe Grace is right. Maybe it will give them an opportunity to reconnect as a family.
But once they arrive, the Ackermans discover they’re not the only family with which they’ll be connecting.
Due to a bit of a mix-up, Tommy’s family will be sharing a yurt with the Sanders clan, led by the back-cracking, harmonica-loving, prayer-pontificating Eddie Sanders. Eddie and his family quickly consecrate the yurt as “holy ground,” and Eddie insists on separating into into a boys’ half and girls’ half. The whole family plans to stick to the WWJE diet at camp, which is distinctly lacking in barbecue.
And Eddie takes great pride in the fact that the Sanders (Sanderses?) have won the camp’s competition trophy for the last two years. Why not make it three? Because if there’s one thing that Eddie loves almost as much as Jesus, it’s trophies.
Family camp will just last a week, which perhaps is a bit of solace for Tommy Ackerman. But while 2 Peter 3:8 tells us that “with the Lord one day is as a thousand years,” a day with Eddie Sanders just feels that long.
Buckle up, Tommy. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.
Positive Elements
Tommy and Eddie don’t share much in common. What do they share? A love of their respective families—even if they sometimes struggle to show it as they should.
Before camp, Tommy tended to lose himself in work, and Grace was right when she told him that he needed to reconnect with his growing children. He does so, ultimately—especially with his son, Henry. The two have struggled as of late: Henry would much rather create nature documentaries (which he narrates in an Australian accent) than play sports. But the boy still desperately wants to make his pops proud. Turns out, Tommy couldn’t be prouder of Henry, even if he doesn’t understand the whole nature doc thing: “You’re perfect just the way you are,” he says.
But we see that Grace and daughter Hannah need to shore up their own relationship, too. With Hannah leaving home soon, Grace hoped that she and Hannah could use camp to find some good mother-daughter time. That doesn’t happen, really, but Hannah realizes toward the end of camp just how much she and Grace mean to each other—and how much they always will. “Mom, I’m going to need you for everything,” she says.
If Tommy has been guilty of disengaging a little too much from his family before camp, Eddie might have erred the other way. He and his wife, Victoria, are struggling—in large part because of Eddie’s domineering nature. Eddie worries about his fraternal twins, too. “I love them so much,” he confesses. “And yet I’m still afraid I’m going to mess them up somehow.” Camp proves to be a bit of an ointment for him and Victoria, though it doesn’t come without cost.
And without giving too much away, the Ackermans and Sanderses find and form their own hard-earned bonds. Confession and forgiveness form a central theme here. And, as we’ll see, they might edge a little closer to God—or at least God-honoring principles—as well.
Spiritual Elements
Family Camp is targeted at a faith-based audience. The movie understands that it doesn’t need a literal come-to-Jesus moment for its characters, because most of its viewers have already had that moment. Rather, this story is a little bit more about the place where most of us are at: What does it mean to live as a Christian should live? How does our faith impact our family? Our friendships? Ourselves?
We do hear some thoughtful theological ruminations at times. Someone says that, if God’s in control of the chaos He’s seen, “I’m not sure if I’m that interested in faith.” When another character regurgitates the old cliché that “God doesn’t make junk,” it comes with added poignancy.
But many of the movie’s most overtly spiritual elements are used more to foster inside jokes—Christians making jokes at the “expense” of Christians that (most) Christians will get and appreciate.
For instance: As Tommy and his family drive to camp, his vehicle is cut off by another SUV. The vanity plate on the offending vehicle reads “BLESSED.”
For instance: Eddie’s elaborate blessing ceremony of the camp yurt, which includes a harmonica-accompanied hymn, references to the land of Goshem and a “big spiritual hug.” When Eddie showily prays over his entire family later that evening—dabbing a bit of oil on each family member’s head with a dropper—Tommy feels as though he must follow suit—even though he’s clearly never prayed over his family before. “Pretty sure God knows our names, Dad,” Hannah sighs after Tommy introduces them to Him.
For instance: When Eddie saves Tommy from choking on a piece of meat, the meal’s attendees applaud. “Just doing the Lord’s work,” Eddie says. He tries to deflect praise to the Almighty, then amends his statement: “OK, [it was] a little bit me, but mostly Him,” he says.
We could go on. We hear references to Dave Ramsey and vegan Gospel choirs. We hear a Christian form of “Baby Shark”. The Sanders family brings a couple of gerbils to camp, one of which is apparently named “Little Billy Graham.” Someone quips that “when God closes a door, he opens a Chick-fil-A.” We hear many jokes predicated on an insider’s knowledge of evangelical Christianity, and I don’t want to spoil all of them.
Someone is called “Lucifer.” The camp’s opening ceremony includes torches representing the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We hear a mention of evolution, to which the mentioner is told, “We don’t say the ‘E’ word here.” We hear a reference to speaking in tongues. A scene takes place in a church.
Sexual & romantic Content
Hannah hits it off with a boy in camp, and she spends most of her time with him (much to Grace’s chagrin). Nothing physical takes place: Their one potential kiss is interrupted by circumstance. But this budding romance is clearly a point of concern for Grace. (She says the boy’s intentions are probably “God only knows what.”)
Eddie flirts with his wife, and Victoria reminds him that the children are watching. “How do you think they got there?” he teases. He compliments Tommy’s wife as well. Being a chiropractor, he notices Grace’s “lovely neck.” (He reassures Tommy that he’s just speaking professionally.)
Henry films most everything, and he records sister Hannah on the drive up to camp. “Stop filming your sister,” Tommy tells him. “It’s creepy.”
After Eddie’s stung by bees, he’s in need of an emergency shot, which needs (he tells prospective shot-giver Tommy) to be injected in Eddie’s thigh or buttock. Tommy rejects the buttock, and he reluctantly (and comically) massages Eddie’s thigh to prepare it for the injection.
The camp’s director and cook seem to get a bit chummy.
Violent Content
Eddie’s encounter with the bees leads to a seriously swollen face. The first anti-venom shot that Tommy tries to inject instead goes (painfully) into Eddie’s hand. The next one hits its intended mark, but it seems equally painful.
A game of full-contact soccer (for the camp competition) involves family members donning inflatable shells. Several participants are knocked over and rolled about after being aggressively “tackled,” and one player flees from contact.
Someone gets pushed into a lake. Someone else falls in. Two people wrestle in another body of water, and a mustache is yanked. Tommy hits his head on a rock and is knocked unconscious. A beaver is nearly run over. Eddie, being a chiropractor, cracks a number of spines and joints. One recipient falls over afterward. An ATV blows up from a fiery arrow. A flaming marshmallow finds its way onto someone’s head.
[ Spoiler Warning ] Eddie and Tommy are captured by zealous, um, hunters . The kidnappees are overcome by tranquilizer darts, then tied to a tree and left possibly to die. When Tommy and Eddie encounter them again, the hunters are beaten and overcome—so much that Tommy worries that one might be dead.
Crude or Profane Language
None, though Eddie does call Tommy “Bucko” frequently.
Drug and Alcohol Content
Other noteworthy elements.
Eddie and Tommy consider stealing an ATV. A child runs off into the woods by himself. (He has the best of intentions, but he worries his mother nearly to death.) Henry gets car sick (off camera). Someone lies, but that lie comes with consequences.
Christian comedy.
For some, the words are mutually exclusive. Christians don’t laugh, some in the secular world believe. A few Christians, honestly, seem to believe it, too.
But it goes just beyond stereotype. Christian comedy—and by that I’m not talking just clean comedy, but comedy predicated on Christianity—is hard to master. Talk Christianity, and you’re talking about a truth that brings meaning to everything we do. You’re talking about a faith that we should hold as our most precious possession. So when you’re mining that precious thing for a few yucks, the perils are great. Secular audiences might not get it. Christian audiences might be offended.
Tommy Woodard and Eddie James, known collectively as the Skit Guys, have been living on that line for a while now. Performing together since high school, the two have carved a faith-based niche for themselves, writing and performing skits for churches, conferences and other Christian gatherings. Family Camp is their first feature-length film.
“You’re laughing as something you’re watching, you’re probably going to be more apt to listen to whatever they have to say,” James says in a promotional video for Family Camp . “And then you just got to have something good to say. And we believe the word of God is the best thing to talk about.”
Yeah, Family Camp is funny. It’s slick, too, in a good way. This feels like a solid Hollywood laugher with a bunch of pretty talented people in front and behind the camera. And if the characters sometimes feel a bit inconsistent or the film tries a little too hard to draw a laugh, it doesn’t take away from the real pleasure Family Camp offers. The smiles and laughs this film earns are genuine.
Naturally, being a Christian film, it doesn’t have nearly the content issues we’d be discussing if this was a secular comedy—even a relatively family friendly one. It does engage in some slapstick humor, and a few jokes can stray just a teensy bit into the bathroom or bedroom. But you’re not going to see a secular movie this clean this side of 1957.
And, of course, the messages here—of forgiveness, of repentance, of what it means to be a family—are all spot on.
No, Family Camp probably isn’t for everybody. Sometimes, laughing at ourselves can be a hard thing to do. But Family Camp shows that Christian comedy isn’t just possible, it can be quite good, too.

‘Family Camp’ Review: Born to Be Mild
There’s little new in this comedy about parents and kids on a church outing in the wilderness.
- Share full article
By Nicolas Rapold
Dad humor abounds in “Family Camp,” a vanishingly mild comedy that resembles other films about parents and kids bumbling in the wilderness. The lessons about being good to your folks are the same; “family is family,” to quote the absolutely undeniable title of one song in the film. But this summer trip, replete with cabins (or yurts) and goofy activities, is a church outing: the family that prays together, glamps together.
Tommy (Tommy Woodard) can’t tear himself away from work and be “present” with his wife, Grace (Leigh-Allyn Baker). They head to camp with their teenage daughter (Cece Kelly) and camera-wielding son (Jacob M. Wade). Tommy gets into a keeping-up-with-the-Joneses rivalry with Eddie (Eddie James), another dad, who rallies his wife, Victoria (Gigi Orsillo), and kids like a motivational team leader. He serves as the eager-beaver counterpart to Tommy’s phoned-in approach to worship.
As Eddie, James mugs furiously, while Woodard’s low-key wisecracks struggle to register, making their long hike in the film’s second half feel even longer. (The two have a following as a podcast and performance duo called “The Skit Guys.”) As for Grace and Victoria, their concerns are phrased in terms of feeling overshadowed or neglected by their husbands. And “Meatballs” this is not: a rude boy’s interest in Tommy and Grace’s daughter ends up getting shut down.
The film wasn’t screened for review by critics but it cracked the top 10 in the weekend box office, just behind “The Northman,” which I personally preferred as an outdoor adventure.
Family Camp Rated PG. Running time: 1 hour 51 minutes. In theaters.

Family Camp Reviews
Family Camp is a dreadfully unfunny ripoff of other comedies about families at a vacation campground. The kid characters are nice, but their annoying parents unfortunately get most of the screen time. It's formulaic junk that goes from bad to worse.
Full Review | May 29, 2022
It’s a funny acknowledgment of the quirkiness we sometimes see in our churches. Viewers who haven’t spent time in these Christian circles won’t find the film as amusing.
Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | May 20, 2022
These guys simply aren't funny, so already withering material completely falls apart in their hands.
Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | May 17, 2022
A vanishingly mild comedy that resembles other films about parents and kids bumbling in the wilderness.
Full Review | May 16, 2022
The Skit Guys have answered faith-based movie lovers' prayers: This is easily the best Christian comedy made to date. With excellent production values, solid direction, and fantastic comedy chops from the cast, Family Camp is a winner.

The first feature film from The Skit Guys—Tommy Woodard and Eddie James—Family Camp is a laugh-out-loud comedy that is sure to touch the hearts and tickle the funny bones of every family member from eight to eighty.

Family Camp Parent Guide
This painful film serves only to confirm stereotypical misapprehensions about people of faith..

The guide to our grades, parent movie review by rod gustafson.
I am a person of faith who appreciates those rare cinematic gems that deftly weave the struggles and blessings that come to those who journey on the path of finding God. In Family Camp there are struggles and blessings, as well as characters journeying on a literal path. But where it leads is far from a carefully crafted message extolling the benefits of enduring faith and God.
As the title promises, this movie takes place at a church camp where families presumably come together to seek spiritual reflection while having some fun. The Ackerman family doesn’t seem to be finding much of either. Any hope their pastor (Mark Christopher Lawrence) had of helping them and other families, like the Sanders, come and reap the joy of a religious retreat is lost in a never-ending itinerary of competitive matchups that only bring the worst out of these campers. Instead of opportunities to become good sports, the lead characters find more satisfaction exchanging smack talk and slapstick violence – two ingredients that take up the vast majority of the screen time.
The script’s journey has an ending more predictable than the “amen” at the end of a rousing benediction. And the pews of this cinematic church are stuffed with stereotyped characters that seem to be irresistible choices for filmmakers. But the biggest question I have is, to whom are these movie creators hoping to give this somewhat irreverent and always clichéd sermon? Watching this film made me squirm in my seat while I thought of any non-believer that might have accidently bought a ticket to this romp. Certainly, such souls would only have confirmed all their misinformed beliefs about people of faith. Fortunately, the handful of people sharing the enormous theater with me were frequently laughing… I can only assume they are part of the choir to whom this movie was intended to preach.

Family Camp Parents' Guide
Amidst the ridiculous behavior of the characters in this movie, the script occasionally inserts some more serious dialogue. What is the minister trying to teach Tommy about the role of parents when he shows him a compass? How do you feel about fathers being a guide for their families? Although Eddie embraces such a role, what are the results of his interpretation of leadership? What things could you try to do in your family to get that balance right?
When Grace complains that her family is coming up short next to Victoria’s, she is told to “peek behind the curtain”. What does Victoria mean? Why might the way we present ourselves in public be different than the way we live in private? Should we be more transparent? Why is it best to be cautious about comparing ourselves with others?

4 Things You Should Know about Family Camp , the Faith-Based Comedy Starring the Skit Guys
- Michael Foust Crosswalk Headlines Contributor
- Published May 13, 2022
Tommy Ackerman is a middle-aged father who loves his wife, his kids and his job. Especially his job .
As his wife sees it, he's either at work, on the golf course, or on his cell phone.
"We barely get to see you," she says.
But she has a plan to get him away from work and with the family: a vacation at Camp Katokwah, a scenic retreat by a lake. And with their church sponsoring an upcoming trip, the trek will have a spiritual element, too.
Ackerman begrudgingly agrees to go.
Unfortunately, though, the trip doesn't go as planned. First off, they're forced to double up with another family. If that wasn't bad enough, their accommodations – a yurt – leave a lot to be deserved. And that other family? They're awkward. And loud. And annoying.
"My choice would have been Maui," Ackerman says.
Can the Ackermans find the peace and quiet they need to bond?
The new faith -based film Family Camp (PG) tells the story of Tommy Ackerman, his wife Grace Ackerman, and their yurt neighbors, the Sanders.
Here are four things you should know:
Photo courtesy: ©Roadside Attractions, used with permission.
1. It Features the Skit Guys
If you grew up in an evangelical church, you have likely seen the work of the Skit Guys , a comedy duo featuring two life-long friends, Tommy Woodard and Eddie James. They perform at conferences, churches and camps. They also produce short (but excellent) videos for use in churches – some inspirational, some humorous. (Most of the videos don't even show the duo on camera.)
The duo's career began by performing skits for their youth group. They were so impressive that other churches invited them to perform.
In the film, Woodard plays Tommy Ackerman, and James plays Eddie Sanders.
2. It's a Rare Breed: a Faith-Based Comedy
Faith-based dramas have been prevalent for the past two decades ( I Can Only Imagine and War Room , among them). Faith-based documentaries are, too ( The Jesus Music is one of the bests ever).
But faith-based comedies? They're nearly as rare as faith-based musicals (2021's A Week Away leads that tiny bunch).
Moms' Night Out (2014) was the first quality faith-based comedy of the modern era. There have been a few good other ones, including The Resurrection of Gavin Stone (2017), Selfie Dad (2020) and Switched (2020).
Family Camp belongs on this small list of best faith-based comedies.
Much of the humor involves situational comedy, playing off the awkward arrangement of the two families forced to camp together in a yurt. (A curtain is placed down the middle of the yurt for privacy.) Eddie is outgoing but socially awkward. Tommy is straight-laced and businesslike. The wives are opposites. The kids are, too.
Slapstick comedy is prominent. The arrangement gets off to a bad start when Eddie, a chiropractor, immediately gives Tommy an unwelcome back massage. From there, Eddie: 1) saves Tommy from choking on a piece of meat, 2) gets the two men lost in the woods, 3) nearly drowns his friend in frustration – although Eddie started the "fight," and 4) gets the two men kidnapped by a pair of redneck hunters. (A beaver – yes, a beaver – saves him.) Somewhere in there, they also get into a squabble over a harmonica.
The comedy stays clean. My 10-year-old son laughed and laughed while watching it. I did, too.

3. It Delivers Solid Lessons
Family Camp is a movie with a solid message – several of them, actually.
It displays unconditional love between moms and dads, parents and children, while reminding us that no family is perfect. (We see the Ackermans and the Sanders bicker several times, yet they always make up.)
It urges Christians to practice what they preach not only in public but at home when no one else is looking. (Eddie, as we learn, isn't a cheerful person when he's only around his wife and kids.)
Family Camp has several other good lessons. It promotes forgiveness and reconciliation. It endorses purity in dating relationships (Tommy's daughter pushes a boy into a stream when he tries to kiss her.) It even shows us the dangers of making your family an idol.
4. It's for the Whole Family
Family Camp is rated PG for "action and thematic elements," but – honestly – it could be rated G. It contains no coarse language. It contains no sexuality. The violence remains in the super-silly Three Stooges realm.
"We are committed to making faith-based comedies that you don't have to worry about what's being said or done," James said.
With Family Camp , he added, "there's no bait and switch."
The film has a lot of big companies and well-known names behind it. Like Roadside Attractions ( Manchester by the Sea ). And Provident Films ( Blue Miracle, War Room ). And K-LOVE Films ( The Jesus Music, The Case for Heaven ). It also stars Leigh-Allyn Baker ( Will & Grace ) and Robert Amaya ( Courageous, Moms' Night Out ). Rhett Walker even performs.
Family Camp is a movie you can watch with your whole family. Not many live-action comedies can say that.

I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com! Josh Nisbet Director, State of CA Public Sector
I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It! Patti Petree Winston Salem, NC
I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents. Christine Doherty Machesney Park, IL
Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together. Scott Heathe Vancouver, BC
I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!! Patrina Streety Moreno Valley California

Please rate movie 1 to 5 stars
Such a cute fun family film!!! My entire family laughed out loud multiple times!
Very family friendly movie. My 5 & 7 year old grandsons loved it and laughed out loud several times. It is nice to see a movie without 4 letter words and inappropriate adult situations. Our family is looking for movies like this. Nothing is perfect or for every viewer, but this was a great start to summer with positive family values and love and respect shown by the family members. We want more movies this this!!!!
I liked the movie was family friendly. The theme throughout was family having priority over our very busy schedules. When husbands and wife's take time to be present not just physical but emotionally with their family great memories that last a lifetime are made. It was very entertaining it just felt like mmmm home. I encourage anyone struggling to find family time go see this it gives you a picture of what life can be if we just take the TIME.
It was just simply terrible. I would have left if I hadn't taken my niece. Please do yourself a favor and save your money
I like the idea but this movie was soooo bad. Trying to add a "Caddyshack" type of fake animal made this even worse. Couldn't handle this move, thank God for popcorn.
My husband and I saw the movie yesterday and loved it. I thought it would be funnier but loved it anyway. It is a movie that is clean and not offensive in anyway. Will be watching it again when it is onine.

Family Camp
When two polar-opposite families are forced to camp together, the dads struggle to hold onto their families and marriages as they compete for the coveted camp trophy.
Dove Review
In this new Skit Guys film, Grace Ackerman (Leigh-Allyn Baker), quirky but stubborn wife and mother, is certain that by immersing their family in a summer, church camp, her husband Tommy Ackerman (Tommy Woodard), will finally be forced to spend quality time with her and the kids, teenager (Cece Kelly) and boy (Jacob Wade). Typical little brother/teen sister fights are humorously familiar as the family drives to the place Tommy was absolutely sure he would never go- Church Family Camp!
Upon arrival, the camp director (Robert Amaya) happily advises the Ackermans they will be sharing a yurt (a circular domed tent used by pastoral people groups in inner Asia) with another family, (who could be described as melodramatically absurd). Too soon, the Ackermans meet the Sanders. Eddie Sanders (Eddie James), father and chiropractor, in a fit of happy histrionics, snatches Tommy and Grace for an extremely funny, spine-popping adjustment. The Ackermans quickly find Eddie’s lack of humility is superseded only by his theatrical ability to annoy. Eddie’s wife, Victoria Sanders (Gigi Orsillo), maintains the weird energy on her end as their young twins (Elias Kemuel) and (Keslee Blalock) keep a safe distance from the parent group.
The prophetic writing on the wall comes dreadfully for Tommy when Eddie and family joyfully sing How Great Thou Art to, “offer up a humble hymn of praise and to consecrate their yurt as Holy Ground”. This is humorous, and although it may give off warnings that Family Camp makes fun of hyper-Christians (kind of like Homer Simpson’s neighbors). we should be quick to realize there’s a strength in the ability to laugh at oneself, as do the Skit Guys. Some viewers will recognize the Ackermans’ characters, who tend to look like the preoccupied, under-committed Christian, periodically attending church, but unsure of the words to How Great Thou Art . You know, “How-great-thou-art …”
The film perpetuates itself by rolling through one pie eating, paddle boating competition after another, each pushing Tommy closer to an all-out-camper-war with Eddie, whose sense of putting others first, bounced far, far away in a blue Bubble Ball. Sub-stories are woven in, one being the chewing presence of an odd little beaver (created by David Acuff), reminiscent of the dancing gofer in the movie Caddy Shack. Other interactions center around the issue of maintaining rewarding family time; Pastor Dave (Mark Lawrence) makes time to counsel Tommy on leading his family.
Another situation involves a men’s deep-woods hiking trip. When Eddie and Tommy get lost together (you know they’re going to), all focus turns to finding them. Everything we might expect happens when Eddie grabs a bee hive and puffs up like a porcupine, when their clothes are burned by the campfire, and when they are captured by two backwoods, nutty survival guys (Myke Holmes and Weston Vrooman). All in all, a bad day.
Meanwhile back at camp, Grace confides in Victoria her need for Tommy to give their family priority over his job, prompting Victoria to divulge her marriage problems, then offering to pray with Grace. “I’d like to pray in my prayer language,” she tells Grace, who stammers, “You mean in … tongues.”
“No,” says Victoria, “in Spanish.”
Family Camp is the product of clever writing, acting outside the box and just plain ol’ hav’n fun. The back woods craziness is a little long and takes on an extended life of its own. No worries; Skit Guys fans will love that. Cinematography and directing, along with the score and set, create an awesome camp experience. There are no objectionable elements, past the rating of 1, in this clean and funny family film. We do learn about consideration for others, the importance of family and honesty, and confessing and confronting weaknesses. Dove awards Family Camp the All Ages Seal of Approval.
The Dove Take
The popular, comedic, Christian team known as The Skit Guys, brings us Family Camp, a well-produced, well-written and acted film produced to entertain both secular and Christian audiences, one hearty laugh after another.
Dove Rating Details
Christian jargon, devoted prayer, but no noticeable true sharing of the Gospel
Main characters have different levels of integrity, some just wanting the best for their family, while others want best for themselves.
Situational things like the nutty guy shooting a drugged arrow, and a campfire out of control

More Detail:
FAMILY CAMP is a funny, heartwarming movie about two dysfunctional families that learn how to love one another at a Christian summer camp. The movie has some very positive Christian messages, no foul language, no sex, and lightweight slapstick violence.
The movie opens with Tommy Ackerman on the phone closing a big deal and coming in late to church with only two minutes of the sermon left. The pastor is talking about Jesus and the need to love one another.
After his sermon, the pastor announces that the church is signing up people for the family camp. Tommy’s wife, Grace, wants to go because the family is falling apart. In a very funny scene, Tommy expresses each one of his concerns, and, as if reading his mind, the pastor answers each one of them. For instance, Tommy says the camp must have air conditioning, the pastor says each camp unit has air conditioning. Tommy relents and says he’s going to sign up for the camp.
However, when the family gets to Family Camp, Grace learns that Tommy forgot to make the sign up. However, the head of the camp, Joel, has a solution. He’s going to put the Ackerman family in a round Mongolian hut with Eddie Sanders and his family. Eddie and his family appear to be the perfect Christian family. They sing together, he plays the harmonica, they say prayers, he disciples their children, and he’s won the camp contest for two years in a row. In other words, Eddie and his family are really obnoxious, and totally opposite Tommy and his family.
Tommy’s daughter doesn’t want to be there. A very attractive teenager, she wants to be out dating boys. Tommy’s son is a nerd and likes being a nerd. He doesn’t want to play the camp games. He wants to look at nature and get out his slide rule and measuring tape. He’s a scientist in the making.
After one day of really challenging camp games, such as soccer while you’re in a big plastic ball, and other games that involve some degree of physical combat, they announce they’re going to have a hike of the fathers and husbands into the natural wilderness. Tommy protests that he thought this was a time to come together and be with family. His wife reminds him he spent a lot of time during this time on his phone with his clients and with a man who’s trying to steal his clients. As always, Tommy relents and goes on the hike and is paired with obnoxious Eddie.
Tommy gets Eddie into trouble with a beehive. Eddie is allergic to bees, but he’s brought an adrenaline shot, which he asks Tommy to jab into his thigh. In the midst of dealing with the bees, the other men leave them far behind.
Now, lost in the woods on the wrong path, Tommy and Eddie are trying desperately to survive. When everything looks worse, they run into two Reality TV stars whose reality program was trying to find Bigfoot in Arkansas. They try to borrow the stars’ motorized vehicles, but the stars catch them, tie them up around a tree and pour honey on the ropes to leave them to the wild creatures of the forest at night.
Meanwhile, back at the camp, everyone panics. They send the park police to find Eddie and Tommy. Even Tommy’s young son goes off by himself to find his father. Will they find Tommy and Eddie? Will the truth come out about Eddie Sanders, who has a tremendous secret? Tommy’s only hope is to turn his life over to God at last.
FAMILY CAMP is a funny movie with many heartfelt moments. Some of the humor is over-the-top. However, just when it looks like the movie is getting too hokey, there are some excellent surprises and plot twists that keep viewers glued to the movie. In terms of foul language and sex, the movie is very clean. The violence is slapstick, however, and slightly mean spirited in a couple places, such as when Eddie practices his chiropractic skills on other people. FAMILY CAMP has a lot of good in it, however. For example, it teaches how to love your wife and how to love your husband, how children should be appreciated for who they are, the importance of faith, getting over pride, learning how to forgive, and much, much more. MOVIEGUIDE® commends the cast and crew of FAMILY CAMP for creating a joyful, heartwarming comedy for the whole family.
