"Instant family"

Watched English movie "Instant family". Direction Sean Anders. Screenplay: Sean Anders, John Morris. Produced by Sean Anders, Stephen Levinson, John Morris. Cinematography Brett Pawlak. Music by Michael Andrews. It features Marc Wahlberg, Isabela Moner, Iliza Shlesinger, Tig Norato, Margo Martindale, Julie Hagerty,  Octavia Spencer, Tom Segura. The movie was released in 2018 and runs for about 2 hours. I watched it on Netflix with Aditi.

Mark and Rose decide to adopt a child. They visit a adoption fair and are impressed by 15 year old girl, Isabela. They decide to adopt her but are told that they will have to adopt her with two younger siblings. So now they have 3 adopted kids and instant family. 

The movie is all about if and how the kids adapt to the new environs. Do Mark and Rose manage to win them over, do they manage to stand the kids? Is the 15 year old the most difficult? What happens when biological mother of kids makes an entrance?

Thre story takes us into the lives of this instant family. It takes time for any new member to adjust into family, here there are three. Add to it handling the adoption with kids gloves and parents not really ready for three kids. To top it, one of the adopted kids is coming of age. So it's a family drama, coming off age and above all feel good movie. 

Mark, Rose and Isabela are the main characters and they play their roles very well. Isabela has potential. The little ones look cute. 

It's a feel good movie and that is exactly what it achieves. 

Watch if you have spare time.
