Parental Guidance (out Dec 26) suffocates the audience with family values and hopes that we won't notice the messy, up-and-down plot and the lame, unoriginal jokes. This is not good. It's the tale of a husband & wife, who have no clue about technology, that are required to look after their 3 grandchildren for a week. Grade: C.
