Instant Family

CriticsCritics: 70
AudienceAudience: 7.5

A couple hoping to start a family enters the foster care system expecting to welcome one child. When they meet three siblings, including a guarded teenager, they suddenly face the challenge of becoming parents to all of them while learning that fostering and adoption bring both rewarding moments and real difficulties.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like warm comedies that balance laughs with emotional family challenges and a thoughtful look at fostering; Not for you if you prefer subtle humor or unpredictable plots.
