Rotten Tomatoes reports a 20% approval rating, reflecting a largely critical consensus. Reviewers often noted that while the film provides some interesting insights into the show’s backstage realities, it fails to deliver a compelling narrative or nuanced character development. Critics such as those from Common Sense Media pointed out that the movie "feels formulaic and lacks the heart and humor that made the original series beloved." Additionally, several reviews commented on the acting performances, describing them as inconsistent and insufficient to elevate the weak screenplay. Overall, the movie is seen as a tedious dramatization that appeals mostly to die-hard fans of "Full House" rather than a broader audience looking for a well-crafted biopic.
