First Family (1980)
4/10
I like this movie for the wrong reasons
24 August 2021
I agree with the vast majority of other reviewers here. There's a great cast trying to make an un-funny script into a funny movie. I especially don't get the 'funny' of a costume party, which seems to go on far too long anyhow. What I do like about this movie is that it has something in it to offend nearly all of today's uber-offended groups who complain about every and anything they perceive as a negative remark or comment. When this movie came out 40 years ago, feelings were not so tender with everyone crying all the time about being offended, people could actually laugh at themselves.

If you want to watch this one, or save it as an example of something totally politically incorrect, I'd say to do that pretty soon as this is bound to disappear.
