Keeping Up With Randalls-When it's All for the Family ***
Be Yourself
Children's fashion designer Marnette Patterson goes with her boyfriend to his sister's wedding and clashes with his horror of a competitive family. However, after the usual tantrums and tears, she proves her worth to them and herself and things turn out happily.
This subpar Hallmark Channel TV movie runs its predictable course with no surprises, mediocre photography and a simple, cheerful countrified soundtrack that grates on the ears after about twenty minutes. Even Marion Ross, playing the wise but chipper grandmother, can do little with her role and the characters, when they are defined at all -- one brother loves playing the guitar, the bride-to-be manages the family sports store brilliantly and a cousin pops up for the big hare-and-tortoise race where everyone bonds. Smug, obvious and boring, this is one you can skip.
