Yours, Mine and Ours

Directed by: Raja Gosnell

Genres: Comedy, Family, Romance

Tagline: 18 kids. 2 families. 1 force of nature.

Plot Outline: A widowed Coast Guard Admiral and a widow handbag designer fall in love and marry, much to the dismay of her 10 and his 8 children.

My Rating: 6.0 [rate 3]

Cast: Dennis Quaid, Rene Russo, Sean Faris, Katija Pevec, Dean Collins, Tyler Patrick Jones, Haley Ramm, Brecken Palmer, Bridger Palmer, Ty Panitz, Danielle Panabaker, Drake Bell, Miki Ishikawa, Slade Pearce, Little JJ

It’s a kind of a Cheaper by the Dozen by splitting the parents and giving them both a lot of kids, as close to a dozen they could give without getting sued I guess. Making the kids completely different so that it will be funnier and more “difficult” to live together.

Overall I think that it’s a really nice, try with a lot of pranks. I believe that if this one came out before Cheaper by the Dozen then it would be an even more of a hit.
