About This Movie

Family (2018) directed by Laura Steinel has this raw, almost relatable energy about it. The film follows Kate Stone, played by Taylor Schilling, who's all about her career and pushing everyone away, until she gets roped into babysitting her niece Maddie. The pacing is interesting; it blends that chaotic family vibe with a comedic undertone, but there are moments that hit deeper, exploring themes of connection and responsibility. The performances feel genuine, especially Schilling's, as she navigates the mess of her life. It’s a solid mix of humor and heart, capturing the evolving dynamics of family in a way that feels both fresh and familiar, yet isn’t overly sentimental. Definitely has its quirks and charm.
