Accidental Family Reviews
Accidental Family is safe to pull the entire family around the television, relax, and feel good about the loved ones around us.
Full Review | Original Score: 6.5/10 | Dec 5, 2022
I’ll say it over and over again: sometimes, telling the truth in every aspect of life prevents an impending headache that builds over time. But that would also make for bland storytelling, so Jason Hudson’s family-centric romance, Accidental Family , brings sweetness to the mistaken identity tale.
Accidental Family follows Olivia (Kinsey Leigh Redmond), who has been eyeing (or, as she confesses, stalking) the handsome Alex (Justen Jones) for quite some time at her local coffee shop. Every attempt to get him to notice her fails miserably. Olivia works for a genealogy company that compiles a historical artifact called a “heritage chest.” The chest contains documents, photos, newspaper clippings, and other sentimental items for any family.
As luck would have it, the box she needs to hand off to her client is for Alex’s family, the Baileys. When her client is a no-show, Olivia takes it upon herself to deliver the box to the unsuspecting Baileys. She is greeted by a family surprise party when she arrives at their home. A shocked Olivia throws the heritage chest in the air and lands on her head.
Olivia then wakes up in Grandmother Bailey’s nightgown, greeted by morning breakfast. Everyone in the family thinks Olivia is Olivia Bailey, a long-lost cousin whose been on our tour with the Peace Corps in the Congo. Not wanting to disappoint the family, Olivia goes on with the charade in hopes that she will spend time with Alex, who’s about to marry a gold-digger, Megan (Michelle Davidson). In the process, she finds love from a family she never had, being an orphan.
“…the family thinks Olivia is Olivia Bailey, a long-lost cousin whose been on our tour with the Peace Corps…”
Accidental Family is not exactly in the wheelhouse of the typical Film Threat reader looking for a dark piercing taking into human depravity. But for someone who’s spent more than my fair share of family Christmas dinners, this is safe, fun, and, if you can open your heart, just a bit romantic.
Being a family-friendly film, the film does suffer in ways indicative of the genre. The comedy is too over-the-top, with exaggerated facial and body movements by most of the cast. Dialogue is spoken in the comic tone of, say, The Brady Bunch . And, of course, the ending is 100% happy. I just have to believe this genre can ground itself more and feel authentic to how people act in real life.
Criticism aside, Kinsey Leigh Redmond is the star. As Olivia, she has a lot of dramatic and comedic plotlines to juggle. She’s vulnerable, lovable, and charismatic, and you believe that everyone she meets wants to be her friend. Huge credit for not making this aspect of her character not feel corny in any way.
My problem with stories like Accidental Family is that the idea of someone pretending to be a family member is sometimes too unbelievable for even audiences to buy. There comes a point in the second act where we forget and want to believe this is Olivia’s family. Then the reveal… and well, delightful cringe ensues.
There is no blood, cursing, or deep seedy undertones. In the end, it’s not just a rom-com but a story about the true meaning of “family.” Accidental Family is safe to pull the entire family around the television, relax, and feel good about the loved ones around us.

Loved this movie. I’m a 65 year old man and sobbed at the end. More please !
Very much the pace of a good old Hallmark movie but with funnier characters such as Vinny lol with an I. I knew the silly would turn into sad but I did love the redeeming ending. I know the millennial audience will love this film.

Review by abi ★
fuck her great grandpa for leaving her ass in that orphanage for 18 years wtf 😭
Review by Jenn
i just couldn't get through this. Maybe if it had more genealogy....
Review by jtuttle ★
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I felt uncomfy through most of it, especially when Alex, who thought Olivia was his relative the whole movie, said "I've loved you since the moment I met you" or something along those lines.
The one star is for the kinda cool foster kid story and reuniting at the end.
Review by Sydney [she/her]
It wasn’t While You Were Sleeping until they stole the Joe Jr character so completely.
Anyway this movie had not one but TWO dogs so it was not the worst thing I’ve watched this week. And for these two to reunite after the gaaaarbage of Christmas at the Chateau was truly brave.
Review by dafnisees22 ★
Not that good of a movie
Review by blueberrydr ★★
First of all this plot is so wrong like he definitely thought she was far enough down the family tree to get away with somethin 😭😭but I ate it up. I have no idea why she looked homeless when she was just living her normal life but when she was with Alex suddenly her glasses disappeared and she her hair didn’t look like she just got struck by lightning. The ending was really funny but also why you gotta do Oscar like that 😔 and on her birthday is foul. Him saying “I’m so glad we aren’t related” IS ABSOLUTELY CRAZY. Granny fixing her wig every second and it completely falling off has me dead.
Review by GG ★★
I don’t know who came up with this story, but I think they should be investigated cause WHAT?!?!? This is such an odd story and why did he say, “I’m so happy we’re not related” like ew I CRINGED! I was uncomfortable with the the plot BEYOND compare and the acting was wannabe hallmark. Whoever was on hair and continuity needs to be FIRED RIGHT NOW because tell me why this girl had glasses in one scene and none the next! MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!!! The only reason I gave it stars is because it was so fun to make fun of this movie, and the sets were decent. The ending was the best part of this movie!
Review by starlover1994
This was so bad it’s my new favourite movie. Non-existent continuity, hallmark acting, horrible premise. I recommend to everyone— at the very least you’ll feel visceral incredulity.
Review by MrBeardGuy ½
Nothing about this was accidental. She saw her opportunity, went for it, and epically failed.
The whole movie is Olivia trying to fix one bad mistake and making bad decision after another as she tries to make things right.
Sounds like that’s what Hudson experienced when writing this. This was an unbearable chaotic mess.
Review by Anne Campbell ★½
Accidental Family starts with a bad premise and somehow gets worse. Its morale of uplifting family values doesn’t add any genuine sweetness that it’s supposed to. It’s an over-wrought romantic dramedy that has poorly formed messages on top of bad acting, awful comedy and misguided romance. One shouldn’t be surprised when a story that starts with the idea “I’ll fake being somebody’s family member in order to get them to fall in love with me” isn’t good.
The problems here are endless. Not the least of which is that usually people don’t fall in romantic love with relatives. This Olivia is supposed to be a genealogy expert except at no point do they ever identify how the other Olivia is…
Review by itss_the_stars ★★★
for a silly b-movie, i enjoyed it. the camera angles were rudimentary and the acting wasnt the best, but the story had me crying at the end. i usually like complex stories, and i found the turns this movie took interesting
