I did not at all expect to love this as much as I do. I heard it was better than it seemed on the surface, but did not expect to be so emotional about it. Instant Family really moved me and did great with balancing the humour and the seriousness that entails the themes explored in the movie. It's not the most detailed look at two people adopting three children possible, but in my opinion definitely has enough believability and lovely moments in there. I cried so much during this emotional rollercoaster and toward the end it just broke me, in a deserved and good way. The performances are great and you can tell the director actually knows what he's depicting here. It's far from a generic rom-com slapstick sort of thing, and actually a lovely film that will uplift you for a while. I'm so surprised and glad I gave it a chance.
