Not flashy, not spectacular, "8 Simple Rules" is a cute show that will appeal to its intended audience.

A lot of this material may be hackneyed, but Ritter puts it over with energy and a slathering of shtick. It's simple, really: Like him, like the show.
I find Ritter's performance -- as a father besieged by a pop culture he no longer understands -- to be, within the confines of the series' dumb-dad punchlines, rousingly substantial.
I love it , it is very good , it is comedy and it is family movie I enjoyed too much
