The Bakers' Dozen

Date of Review:  Mar 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: Who says family is cheap?
Review: A family with twelve children has always been a bit of a variation from the norm. In today's society, where some couples focus on raising just one child, we find how much of an exception a large family can be in "Cheaper By The Dozen." Tom Baker...

Bigger may not be Better

Date of Review:  Jan 4, 2004
The Bottom Line: Though it was not the comedy that I expected, their is a message that everyone needs to get.
Review: When I think Steve Martin - I think rolling on the floor laughing hysterically. So needless to say I went to see Cheaper by the Dozen expecting to laugh so hard my belly would hurt. Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy the movie - it had a message that...

One Word - Disappointing - Rent the video if your kids insist on seeing it.

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2004
Review: This is one of those movies where you wish they had just taken more time on the script. It seemed so disjointed with various plots going on that it was hard to focus on any one character. Between all the kids in Steve Martins family this movie could...

'Dozen' Enjoyable Family Fare

Date of Review:  Apr 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: Overall, Cheaper By The Dozen is innocent and inoffensive family fare that the kids will probably love and parents will find rather enjoyable.
Review: OK, I admit it – I liked Cheaper By The Dozen. Didn't LOVE it, but I liked it. Which will place me squarely in the critical minority, I'm sure. But, here's the thing. I'm first, and foremost, a family man. And, from a parental perspective, I can...

Generic Family Film

Date of Review:  Apr 15, 2004
The Bottom Line: A formulaic feel good family movie that you can watch and easily forget, that contains mildly fun entertainment.
Review: Just imagine a studio executive making his pitch to another executive. You take a basic premise about father taking care of children while mom goes away. It's a very formulaic premise that sells itself alone on the idea. Now you make the father...

Baker's Dozen

Date of Review:  Jan 14, 2008
The Bottom Line: The ingredients didn't quite come together for the Bakers.
Review: Once upon a time, there was the Gilbreth family, who really did have twelve kids. Two of those kids wrote a book entitled Cheaper by the Dozen, which told about their family growing up. That book was turned into a 1950 film that has some very funny...

Deceiving As A Comedy

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2003
The Bottom Line: This movie is dreadful. It could have been better than the end result I saw.
Review: Cheaper By The Dozen is a deceiving film in that it seems marketed as a comedy, rather than the drama that it really seems to be. I saw the sneak preview for this film and felt that this movie as overly dramatic in tone than it really could have...

Plain Old Good Family Movie

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2004
Review: Yes, many of us have certain expectations of any movie starring Steve Martin. Especially those of us who have followed him from his early days on Saturday Night Live through classics like Three Amigos to his present day ventures.

Family transcends all

Date of Review:  Jan 21, 2004
The Bottom Line: Go for it, it is definitely one of the better films out there.
Review: Cheaper by the dozen is a refreshing movie that will be only forgotten later rather than sooner. Tom Welling, Hilary Duff, and Piper Perabo are the main characters here, with the rest of the 9 children played by less prolific actors. Steve Martin...
