Every one enjoyed this entertaining film, almost like cheaper by the dozen.
Funny film about 2 large families of 8+ kids get together by their parents marrying. The kids pitch a vengence to split up their parents until finally they realise they get on very well together & school is easier against bullying as their brothers & sisters all stand up for each other . Then its too late they have already split up their parents!! What will they do? has drake & carly in , out of drake & Josh. Good family film
