AUDIENCE SCORE
User Ratings: 2,532
3 stars out of 5 -- Writer-director Sean Anders and his wife are parents to three adopted children, and there’s a sense of verisimilitude and attention to detail regarding both the joys and the travails of foster care.
The Guardian
Feb 17, 2019
Rating: 2/5 -- Sean Anders' film begins bearably; becomes Hollywoodish; ends up as diabetes-grade comedy schmaltz. Full Review
Financial Times
Feb 13, 2019
Rating: 3/5 -- The film is boosted immeasurably by Byrne and Wahlberg, who make a snappily appealing comic pair and bounce off each other well in the film's many fraught parenting moments. Full Review
Daily Telegraph (UK)

INSTANT FAMILY's early stretches are its strongest as Anders -- who co-wrote the film with frequent collaborator John Morris -- balances genuine sentiment with a slightly satiric tone, mocking the newbie parents’ self-satisfaction by assaulting them with the cold reality of childrearing.
Rolling Stone
Nov 14, 2018
Rating: 3/5 -- First impressions here point to an amiable, if ineffectual middle-of-the-road comedy. Nothing wrong with that. Full Review
Herald Sun (Australia)
Oct 10, 2019
Rating: 4/5 -- The ending is hardly revolutionary, but there are some satisfying twists along the way and a cast of characters whose fate you find yourself caring about. Full Review

3 stars out of 5 -- [T]he real star of the show is Isabela Moner playing teenage daughter Lizzie....She's a star in the making, flashing between agony, attitude and sweetness with total conviction.
