• Cheaper by the Dozen 2 directed by Adam Shankman (2005)

  [5/10]

  "All of the twenty child actors seem to have good acting abilities, but with so many children in the cast the kids get about as much screen time as a cameo role in this movie dominated by Martin and Levy."

• Fablehaven by Brandon Mull (2006)

  [6/10]

  "Mull has written a fairly decent modern-day fantasy story that possibly could have had a fairly good chance at hitting the bestseller lists if Mull had worked with a national publishing house."

  Average score: 5.50
