A sequel doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad film.
As I recall, the original film was amusing enough, with many of its crazy situations and characters grounded in reality.
All the cast does what is expected of them, and the kids are all terrific.

Cheaper By The Dozen 2 was a great movie.
But the movie also was good because of the family's attitudes changing as a result of everthing that went on.
But despite the clever plot, it has many flaws.

FIRST PUBLISHED May 23, 2006 A film that is much better than it deserves to be, "Cheaper by the Dozen 2" offers some genuinely sweet moments and decent laughs despite being an otherwise underwhelming film.
This part of the film convincingly captures the awkwardness of adolescence and the plight of first love.

Nicely shot but somewhat boring subtitled period drama about feuding tribes in India.
Lots of great action.
5/23 - Steve Martin's sequel about a dad trying to please his many kids, this time at a lake house.

Laramie Movie Scope:Cheaper by the Dozen 2 Another lame sequel by Robert Roten, Film Critic
The ending of the film is predictably sappy.
The whole plot is thin and forgettable.
Fortunately, this film did not make a lot of money in the United States.

All in all, a great family movie!
My kids, age 11 & 6, enjoyed the first movie and were very excited for the sequel.
I thought it was a good movie, although pretty unrealistic (I grew up in a very large family too).

Until then, all we have for this once great comic is Cheaper By the Dozen 2, and things are not looking good.
The most disturbing moment comes at the very end when Steve Martin is required to gaze upon his first grandchild.
