Loosely based on a true story A feel good comedy about foster families and adoption The dialogue is sorta long and dragged out And the overall movie is a little too corny for my taste

Too saccharine for my taste. I think it probably has some insight into the emotions of adoption and the cast are fine, it’s just too sickly sweet and light on laughs. Also, Cusack’s cameo is crazy fucking random.

Much better than I expected but that's probably because I don't like Mark Wahlberg and the movie poster doesn't do this any favors. Rose Byrne and Octavia Spencer are great as always. Isabela Moner's teenager is sharp and quick so her final acceptance is earned. I liked the honeymoon period and how the relationship with each kid changed which felt real. Weird Joan Cusack cameo at the end. Fav scene: tucking the kids into bed the first night.

It isn't perfect. It has a few flaws which bring it down a notch, but it has more than enough pluses to make up for them. Great performances by the whole cast, especially Wahlberg, Byrne, and Moner, pair with very clever writing and a cool cinematography style that flows from scene to scene. It never feels rushed or drawn out, stays interesting throughout, and balances its laughs and dramatic moments really well. Overall, very watchable, very funny, and very heartwarming.

My new favorite movie of the year. While not perfect, this is probably the most authentic look at the foster/adoptive care system that I've seen portrayed in media. Lots of laughs, lots of tears, plus Octavia Spencer and a woefully underused Julie Hagerty!

An uplifting comedy that succeeds at being funny while also being serious in its portrayal of foster care and adoption. The ending is cliche, but the journey is good.

Preacher as fuck but had a few laughs. Get ready for a totally out of place Joan Cusack at the very end. The weirdest shit I’ve seen in a long time. Sorry about the profanity though.

A good comedy has been really hard to find this last decade, but the first 30-40 minutes of this movie was magical. Fell through towards the ending but all in all a good comedy.

Enjoyable comedy is perhaps a more 'serious' and vividly wrenching experience than the poster or premise sets you up for; whiplash inducing changes of tone are somewhat disorienting, but it's all kept on track by the high quality of performances all round, helping elevate the stock and clichéd characters into something memorable (Wahlberg, Byrne, Moner and a scene-stealing Martindale are very good). A lumpy brew, but all comes together in the end and is even quite touching in its own way.

It was more than just moral and clichés. The funny parts never ruined the seriousness - it was a good combo. *Recommendable

Gets too lost in cheesiness at the end. For my taste. But remains an effective and honest tearjerker.

Instant Family is a simple and clichéd story, made entertaining by some off the performances. Spencer and Notaro are great. Wahlberg and Byrne are tolerable. Moner is surprisingly good. There are plenty of sweet moments and plenty of contrivances. Most of the jokes land, with a pretty good Blind Side running gag. An alright film, but nothing special.

Although it focuses on the importance of adoption, it is not that great. It is a good family movie but apart from that doesn't have anything that shines through.

A fantastic film that shows the importance of adoption, and family. Even if the family isn't "Perfect" by social standards,
