"Are We Done Yet?" is a 2007 family film sequel to "Are We There Yet?" starring Ice Cube. The film is both a remake of the classic Cary Grant comedy "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House" (previously re-made as "The Money Pit") and a sequel to 2005's hit comedy "Are We There Yet?" The film was directed by Steve Carr from a screenplay by Hank Nelken. It was produced by Revolution Studios and RKO Pictures, and distributed by Columbia Pictures. The film was shot on location in Vancouver, Canada, but is set in Newberg, Oregon. The film is rated PG for some innuendo and brief language.

Plot

This sequel picks up as the newly formed family of Nick, Suzanne, Lindsey and Kevin move from the city to the suburbs in the pursuit of an idyllic life. A renovation leads to chaos, however, as Nick clashes with the eccentric contractor, Chuck Mitchell Jr. (John C. McGinley), who bonds with Suzanne and the kids. Nick attempts to build his perfect home and his perfect family while the wacky contractor/inspector/real estate agent/midwife seems to take it all away.
