Cheaper by the Dozen 2 (2005)

Cast: Steve Martin (Tom Baker), Bonnie Hunt (Kate Baker), Eugene Levy (Jimmy Murtaugh), Hilary Duff (Lorraine Baker), Piper Perabo (Nora Baker-McNulty)
For complete cast info, see IMDb's Cheaper by the Dozen 2 page.

If a friend hadn't recommended this one, I doubt I would have rented it. The first movie was okay, but I generally assume that the sequels will be worse, and since the first one didn't impress me too much (in spite of the cast), I wouldn't have bothered with this one.

Cheaper by the Dozen 2 was very entertaining. I think I enjoyed it more than I did the first movie. The entire cast is back, though Tom Welling is barely in this movie, which was great to see. The story is cute and the addition of Eugene Levy as Tom Baker's competition when the family visits the lake was wonderful! Any time you add Eugene Levy to a cast, you've improved it, in my opinion. I definitely recommend taking the time to rent this if you missed it in theatres, too.

Grade: B
