Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

Instant Family (out Jan 10) is the story of a middle-aged married couple who adopt 3 foster kids. The film struggles with tone. There are some mean-spirited moments where the film is pushing for laughs... but it doesn't gel with the more dramatic scenes. Grade: B-.
