My family has seen this movie several times and we enjoy it each and every time. The actors are perfect for their roles, I will never forget Aunt T.

Brilliant, Touching, Unique....

"A Family Thing" is an unusual script, with a unique premise, one that really makes a person examine their own humanity, acceptance, and principles. It's BEAUTIFULLY acted, with Robert Duvall, James Earl Jones, and Irma P. Hall giving what are among the finest performances of their entire careers. It's a very upbeat film, with some wonderful laughs, and with many incredibly touching moments -- it's that rare kind of movie that makes you want to be a better person. It's joyous, inspiring, and deeply moving -- I recommend it HIGHLY! -- David R.

Enjoyable, thought-provoking

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie about the importance of family, even when one finds it in the most unlikely of places. Both James Earl Jones & Robert Duvall are excellent, as usual, but Irma P. Hall nearly steals every scene she appears in. Well worth watching.

One of the best movies Ive seen in a very long time
Added 8/1/2007
I havent watched movies in years because they are too violent and/or sexually inappropriate.. but I loved this movie. Its got meat in it and its believeable. Robert and James shine in this movie and after watching it, I couldnt help but wonder if this had actually ever happened to anyone.. (I'm sure it has). In either case, your going to love this movie... There is one nude scene (it is a siloette of a womans backside and legs. No front parts are exposed. Frankly I think they could of done without that scene but in either case, its not too bad.
