Short description

Admiral Frank Beardsley returns to New London to run the Coast Guard Academy, his last stop before a probable promotion to head the Guard. A widower with eight children, he runs a loving but tight ship, with charts and salutes. The kids long for a permanent home. Helen North is a free spirit, a designer whose ten children live in loving chaos, with occasional group hugs. Helen and Frank, high school sweethearts, reconnect at a reunion, and it's love at first re-sighting. They marry on the spot. Then the problems start as two sets of kids, the free spirits and the disciplined preppies, must live together. The warring factions agree to work together to end the marriage.

Long description

The 2005 re-make of Melville Shavelson's original 1968 comedy hit!

Dennis Quaid and Rene Russo are a perfect match in this irresistible comedy about two single parents who get married... only to meet some unexpected homewreckers -their own kids!

Admiral Frank Beardsley (Quaid), a widower with eight children, runs his family like a tight ship. Frank's orderly life changes course when he impulsively marries his long-lost high school sweetheart, Helen (Russo); a free-spirited fashion designer with ten kids of her own.

For Frank and Helen's wildly different families, it's fight at first sight. So his kids hatch a plan to sabotage the marriage! What follows is a no-schemes-barred, domestic free-for-all that rocks the house with hilarious moments... and some heartwarming surprises.

When Frank, a widower with eight children, runs into his high school sweetheart, Helen North, it's as if 30 years never passed! Helen, also a widow with 10 kids of her own that include the six she and her husband adopted, feels the attraction as well. It's no wonder they rush into marriage without telling their kids. True love can conquer all -right? Unfortunately for Frank and Helen, the families don't mesh quite as easily as the newlyweds had hoped. They probably should have seen the clash coming: the disciplined Beardsleys run things by the book; for the energetic and vivacious Norths, there is no book. Helen's kids aren't pleased about moving and sharing rooms with a bunch of uptight strangers. Frank's children have nothing in common with the unruly Norths. Since both sets of kids aren't happy, they devise a plan to undermine the marriage and team up to plot the breakup. East meets west as the two families find a way to work together -- in order to separate! Just when it appears that the kids have succeeded, they realize they like each other despite their differences -- they don't want their families to split up! Can they save Frank and Helen's marriage after they so brilliantly split them up? It's up to Frank and Helen. A bit like cheaper by the dozen.Good cast.
