Cheaper by the Dozen (2022)

My high hopes were trashed. The original wasn't that well done. Thought it had tons of room for improvement. Yet some how a bit so good movie was made worse. I didn't think it would be possible. It's rather easy to take a great movie and made a bad remake but this one should have been a easy one to make better, some how it fell flat on it's face.

Fmovies: Meh....it was ok. Pretty generic and nothing new or special. I like the idea of a mixed family but they made it so PC it kinda ruined it for me. I find Gabrielle Union plays the same type of character in most things I've seen her in, so I wasn't impressed with her performance. Zach Braff is a good comedic actor and so I expected a bit more of a comedy element from him. All in all it was just a below average family comedy that only made me laugh a few times.

I loved the Steve Martin ones but they were average films and the fact they had to use that name to get this garbage film out is desperate.

The two leads, neither of which have ever been good actors, scrubs obviously worked well with Zack and that's the one anomaly but since then he's done nothing. These two have so little chemistry it genuinely wouldn't have surprised me if she'd put in a clause to have very little contact with him. It was just uncomfortable and forced, thru had no spark, no nothing.

Within a minute with the blm sign, wheelchair bound girl and interracial family I got what this was about. Point scoring. Can we be honest, the type of people you're trying to make less ignorant don't fear jail or violence, they're not going to change via Disney, kids learn the behaviours, they are born hateful so it's got to the point where these tv experiments need to stop unless they work. I'm all for it if the chemistry is off the charts fun.

It's boring, the twins were funny, other kids were very poor had no family feel, no bond, none of the warmth of previous versions.

The scene where the basketball player changed into a weak cheerleader was disappointing, why was he cheering for Seth? It just felt weird, even the stranger felt more natural.

No humour, no nothing worthwhile, makes home alone last year look a masterpiece.

My one worry, a team of people would put this together and think it's atleast ok.

Cheaper by the Dozen fmovies. I recently read an interview with the show runner from a very popular and well made TV series that has been off the air for a number of years. They asked him, with excitement, if he was going to reboot or restart the show. He simply said absolutely not, all these reboots are awful and I would never want to destroy the memory of my show by making a cheaper, woke, lazy version like everyone else in Hollywood is doing. I really wish someone from Disney would read that article and take it to heart. You built an empire on good entertaining family shows, don't destroy it by making cheap, woke, lazy shows (which seems to be all you are doing nowadays).

I knew I was in trouble when I saw the Black Lives Matter sign in the window of the opening scene. I have no issue with BLM, none at all, but it clearly showed what direction the film was heading. The white people are ALL idiots. All of them. Of course there's the obligatory goofy white man trying to dance, the white police officer offending the black woman, and pretty much every other liberal in your face nonsense. It's all forced and so cringe. What did we learn? White people are bad.

Overplayed, overdone 'comedy'. It wasn't funny, Union is bad enough on her own but she makes a bad script a million times worse. Yes, we get it everyone has to be who they are for reasons.
