User Reviews

Absolutely Pointless.

Maz Baer Jr.'s directorial debut certainly isn't what you would call impressive. He also wrote, produced and co-starred in this pointless film.

J.J. McCulloch is the rich owner of a trucking company. He believes that most disagreements should be handled with your fists. His poor parenting causes a lot of strife in his family and results in tragedy.

The main selling point of "The McCullochs" in its trailer is that it features one of the finest brawls ever captured on film. That speaks volumes about the mentality of this movie.

Watching several poorly executed fights and listening to the McCulloch clan be miserable isn't exactly my idea of entertainment. 1/10
