      Movie Info

      Tom Baker (Steve Martin) and his wife, Kate (Bonnie Hunt), take their children for what they hope will be a relaxing summer at a lakeside resort. When the Bakers end up with the shoddiest unit imaginable, a clueless but well-meaning Tom struggles to repair it himself. To make matters worse, Tom's old nemesis -- Jimmy Murtaugh (Eugene Levy) -- and his similarly gigantic family appear on the scene and engage the Bakers in a not-so-friendly rivalry that threatens to spoil their trip.

        As good as the first film! A must see!

        Very different from the first film. The story is more complex and the humor is more cruder. Steve Martin again delivers a funny performance and so does Eugene Levy. Bonnie Hunt as Mrs. Baker is again funny and Carmen Electra needed some help but she was okay. There are like twenty kids in the flick and maybe only half of them were good actors. The ones that did well were Hilary Duff, Alison Stoner, and Taylor Lautner. Yes, Taylor "Sexy Abs" Lautner is in this. Though not as good as the first, it still delivers zany fun for the whole family! Cheaper by the Dozen 3 is in development right now. I hope its better.

        Much of the cast is wasted on this unfunny and completely lame sequel to a remake.

        In Cheaper by the Dozen 2, Steve Martin returns as Tom Baker, a dad with 12 kids. Now that they are all grown up, he wants to have one last family trip to Lake Winnetka. Once there, Tom meets up with his old rival Jimmy (Eugene Levy) who tries to show off all his success and prove to Tom that he's a better man and a better father. But Tom refuses to let Jimmy prove him that he's the better man. Both families compete against each other, to find out which one really has a greater family. Nothing earth shattering here but Steve Martin, Bonnie Hunt and Eugene Levy pull off some decent laughs and Levy was super as the guy who drove Steve Martin up the wall.
