The film speaks of mediocrity and is not even close to its original, Stepmom.

Star Performances
Although Stepmom was a huge hit in it’s time, We Are Family is hardly able to recreate the magic.

What’s There?
1. Emotion and that too lots of it.
2. The marvelous relation between a mother and her children at different ages, wonderfully performed by Kajol.
3. Kareena Kapoor’s and Arjun Rampal’s sizzling chemistry.
What’s not there?
1. The same old magic or even a new form of magic that such a good star cast could create.
2. Lack of depth as shown in Stepmom. You could feel that film with all your senses.
Verdict
Watch this movie only if you truly, truly love authentic Bollywood drama and also, Karan Johar.
