This is a very C grade movie, there's nothing unique and it does the bare minimum with the story telling. Looking back it's really hard to distinguish a beginning, middle and end, all the events that take place in this film kind of just 'happens'. The timeskips in the movie are unforgivable. There's a scene that goes from night to to dawn without any real communication how much time has passed, as far as the viewer is concerned, it's just the next morning, although we soon find out enough time has passed for one of the characters to get married after just 'meeting' them.
This isn't the only instance of bad pacing, there's many other time skips that happen throughout the film, and if you blink, you'll literally miss it. I feel as though the director of this film had a decent idea on how to portray the protagonists life, but at the middle and end had no idea how to wrap up the story. There's a moment in the story that's supposed to be tragic, but it was done so fast and without thought that all I could do is laugh in the cinema.
Most of the characters didn't have much development, and there's a lot of questions you have throughout the film about their backstory that are left unanswered; You finally get some at the end, but that's after multiple scenes of blue balling the audience into thinking they're going to get the answers only to say, "just kidding" and ending the scenes before you get them.
There's not much else to say about the movie - there are some heartwarming moments of acceptance, but they were very few and far between. I wish we got a closer look of Bert and how he was accepted as part of a family and not this sped along train wreck.
