Very touched

A great family comedy, three views are very positive. The movie "Crash Family" is about a white couple adopting three Hispanic children and forming a family after some twists and turns. The tone of the story is very real, except that the characters have made some exaggerations in the drama processing, which makes the comedy effect better. The plot and the problems faced are based on real life. The first half of the film is the running-in of the new family, and these contents are clichés that will inevitably be involved in similar themes. But in the second half, after the children’s mothers are released from prison, they are very serious about the problems caused by the unstable family, the children’s feelings towards the birth mother, and the couple’s choices among them, and it is not easy to talk about sensitive issues well. . The film does a good job in this part, there is no taboo, and there is no deliberate drama conflict. It is a matter of course that the selection behavior of all the characters is very reasonable. The outstanding point of this movie is that the supporting characters are very well formed, and they have taken on a lot of role in regulating the rhythm of the movie's comedy. Although the characters of the protagonists and the couple are slightly mediocre, they are both big and noisy, which can't be said to be a prominent character, but because the many accessories share the emotional transition, the look and feel is very smooth. For example, in the ending, a very happy strange lady is arranged to adjust the emotions of the climax part, so that the plot is not blindly sensational. The lady was moved and invited the staff of the adoption home to chat at home. This was not an invitation with a purpose. The lady did not know that the two were staff, but it was indeed likely to be the beginning of another fate. With this moving inheritance, more people may join as the parents of a poor child.
