The Bakers are back! Only this time, they're going head-to-head against another clan in the ultimate inter-family battle. Bigger movie, more laughs, loaded with action and lots of heart,re the hallmarks of the Baker's new adventure. Now the same family members are back and if they weren't back, this movie wouldn't have been the same. Steve Martin, Bonnie Hunt, Hilary Duff, Piper Perabo and Tom Welling, along with the rest of the kids, are back for this hilarious sequel which I enjoyed. Tom (Martin)and his wife Kate (Hunt) decide that it's time to spend "quality time" as a family when they get good memories of when they were at a local lake. The family agrees and they all rent their "house" that they'd always been going to ever since they began going there. But as soon as they get there, Tom discovers that his arch-nemesis,Jimmy Murtaugh (Eugene Levy) is camping at the same lake with his family of 8 children and his newly bride,Sarina Murtaugh played by the gorgeous Carmen Elektra. Jimmy has always been jealous of Tom. Tom had everything, he had more children than him and he was a famous football coach. These two families try to make each other jealous of one another and they even compete in a family event.
I thought that this movie wasn't as good as the first Cheaper by the Dozen which opened on 2003. The first one, in my opinion is one of my favorite movies. I'll watch it whenever it's on or if I have the chance. I did like the sequel but not as much as I did the first. In my opinion this movie maybe funnier than the original. I was laughing at many scenes in this movie, and the first was a great family comedy but the sequel is the perfect family comedy of the holiday season 2005. This isn't a movie for only kids under the age of 12, anyone cans see this movie, it doesn't matter how old you are and that you only have to see movies that match your age. Anyone can see this movie, it is a great family film.
This movie couldn't have been the same if the children weren't the same as in the first. Like if the producers had to replace someone because the other character couldn't make it, the movie wouldn't be the same. Some of the character didn't have a bigger role than they did in the first and some of the character had bigger roles in this movie. One person I have to say is Sarah, who is played by Alyson Stoner. She was the main kid in the Baker family, which I thought was pretty cool.
So as I said, this is the perfect family comedy of the holiday season of 2005. Everyone can enjoy this movie if they just let it go on. Just watch the movie and you will enjoy this and it's a great way to bring laughs into the house. I give this a 7.5/10.
