What We Think

Cheaper by the Dozen 2 is a throwback to simpler times, focusing on family, old-fashioned values, and physical comedy without pushing a modern agenda. Barely a whiff of woke here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Cheaper by the Dozen 2 keeps to the basics: big family, predictable mishaps, and humor rooted in personality rather than identity. Characters aren’t defined by their race, gender, or sexuality, but rather by traditional family dynamics and classic comedic archetypes. Diversity casting is minimal and organic for its time.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film celebrates family, parental authority, and even some wholesome if slightly chaotic, old-school values. Masculinity (through the dads' rivalry) isn’t vilified, and traditional gender roles go mostly unquestioned. Family, community, and marriage are central, depicted in a positive light, free from revisionist ideology.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There's little to no overt messaging that pushes modern ideology or mocks traditional views. Alternative viewpoints aren’t villainized; this is straight-up, non-woke family comedy. The conflict is situational, and ideological themes aren’t foregrounded or heavy-handed.
