According to Roger Ebert's 2005 review, he thought a lot of the movie was contrived. I disagree. Yes, it's predictable, but that is a given in this kind of family movie. For a while, I thought this was not going to be anything special, but all the expected things that could, and do, happen, make this entertaining. Dennis Quaid and Rene Russo are no Steve Martin and Bonnie Hunt, but they do have chemistry, which Ebert thought they didn't have. This is basically the same movie as Cheaper by the Dozen, so what in the world was he (and most critics) expecting? If you are looking for another of that movie, you won't be disappointed.
