I honest to God do not understand why this movie is so highly rated. The SFX, *most* of the acting...everything was off. They were so close to making an okay movie. Although, I absolutely loved the portrayal of the Foster family. Seeing kids of different races and backgrounds in one home was extremely refreshing. The strong family aspect was admirable, as well as having a disabled main/side character. A friend phrased it as "good at most. just good. nothing better." It was decent. Wouldn't watch it again, though.
