Ranked #5 in Rolling Stone's 10 Best Movies Of 2010 -- [A] raw, funny and humane family drama.
Rolling Stone
Rating: A- --
Filmmaker Lisa Cholodenko gives so much depth and realism to this modern-day-family dramedy, you can feel the love pouring out of her for each one of these unconventionally authentic characters.

Rating: B --
I'm not sure there are many recent releases that understand and explore the family dynamic better than "Kids." That alone makes the film worth a look.

Bowling Green Daily News
This is the kind of movie that had me wishing, moments after I'd left the theatre, that there were more movies like it-sly, sexy grown-up dramas driven by characters who are as fallible as they are likable.

Rating: 4/5 --
It is Bening who sears as a likeable jumble of contradictions... It's a masterclass - and reason enough to buy your ticket.

Total Film
Included in Roger Ebert's The Best Films of 2010 -- In a comedy with some deeper colors, the film is an affirmation of family values.
Chicago Sun-Times
This is a much better made, more persuasive film than The Switch or The Back-Up Plan but just as much about wish fulfilment, and no more honest about conflicts that can leave the kids far from all right.

Product Description:
The son of a same-sex couple seeks out the sperm donor who made his birth possible in this comedy from writer/director Lisa Cholodenko. The committed parents of two teenage children, Nic (Annette Bening) and Jules (Julianne Moore), are about to send their daughter, Joni (Mia Wasikowska), off to college when her younger brother, Laser (Josh Hutcherson), asks for her help in tracking down his biological father. Reluctantly inquiring with the sperm bank, Joni leaves her number so the office can pass it along to Laser's father. Enthusiastic at the thought of meeting his long lost offspring, Paul (Mark Ruffalo) musters the courage to reach out, and the family tree grows a new branch.
