Not as good as the original

Steve Martin and Eugene Levy have always done a great job together. This movie wasn't poor because of their acting, their acting was great, the script was the problem. The idea of the movie was good, but it was poorly written and conceived. Steve Martin plays Tom Baker, a dad with 12 kids. Now that they are beginning to grow up, he wants to have one last family trip to Lake Winnetka. But things have changed; most of Lake Winnetka has been bought up by Jimmy Murtaugh (Eugene Levy). The Murtaughs are old rivals of the Bakers and the competition bug is sparked between Tom and Jimmy. Now both families are pulled into a rivalry among dads.
It was ok, but could have been a lot better.
