Movie review
From Time Out Online
This sequel to the 2003 hit comedy 'Cheaper by the Dozen' sees Tom and Kate Baker taking their 12 out of control children to Lake Winnetka for an idyllic summer holiday. Their plans are wrecked however, when they bump into Tom’s long-time adversary Jimmy Muraugh and his equally large, over-achieving family. Determined to get one-up on each other, the rival clans compete against each other in a variety of stupid and hilarious ways, ruining both their holidays and ultimately driving Tom to distraction.Author:
