tfminfl Its always cool, when you randomly pick a movie to watch and its not only good, but interesting as well... Two scientists meet, accidentally touch hands, they fall in love, get married, get pregnant, then decide to use that child as a guinea pig in a social experiment... nature vs nurture, or raise the child totally to defy their genetic disposition, and while they're at it, they'll adopt two more to run similar experiments with... Its like this... they adopt a daughter, that came from a family of really dumb people, I mean really dumb, but they are going to raise her as if she's going to be wicked smaht. They also adopt a son, who's past relatives lean towards the criminal and violent side, and they raise him as a pacifist... And their own boy, a child born of two scientists, they will raise as an artist, the uni-boob, is one of my favorite pieces of his art. Does it blow up in their face? Well I won't tell, but seriously though, if it didn't blow up in their faces would there be a movie??? Well acted and a cool story. Oh, did I mention its a dark comedy. Go for it!! Filmbufftim on FB.
Neputin If the kids were taken from their parents they wouldn't end up at a fancy boarding school. Institutions like that cost a lot of money. They would end up with much more abusive foster parents and I would have enjoyed this more if that happened.
annette_steiner The VO was charming throughout the movie. The whole concept nurture vs nature vs flip in direction was quite obvious from the beginning. Overall a good movie to watch
rosenda-13697 I love how each character relates to each other, the humor, the concept, the twist. Maybe its not the best of movies but it is definitely a must watch !!!
