About Cheaper by the Dozen: Roger Ebert is wrong, and pretty clearly wasn’t paying close attention to the movie anyhow, since he has a couple of factual errors in his review. So, no, it’s not a three star movie. 1.5 stars, maybe. Not funny, not charming, kind of depressing. Me, I like my cheerful uplifting Christmas movies to be about success rather than failure.

1) Hillary Duff does not have a romantic adventures subplot. Tom Welling's character kind of does, in that he has to leave his girlfriend when the family moves to Chicago, but it's hard to call it a subplot as opposed to a plot element.

2) Bonnie Hunt's book is not "submitted, accepted, edited, printed, in the stores and on the best-seller lists within a week." It's submitted and accepted fairly quickly, but there's a big chunk of time between acceptance and printing.
