Review of Foster

Foster (2011)
6/10
Quirky
3 July 2019
I'm not really sure what to make of this film. It's certainly quirky and has a very tragic-philosophical narrative that I'm not too sure would sit well with parents who have gone through similar circumstances. I'm giving it a high 6 due to the acting of Toni (just phenomenal as a grieving mother) and the forever young Ioan Gruffudd (who in real life also experienced similar hardships with conceiving a child as the movie depicts). Richard E Grant as the mysterious stranger was great. I did laugh out loud a few times and even shed a tear as the end, but the kid was absolutely dreadful and don't understand why he had to be so intellectually autistic (no offence, there's just no other way to describe him).
