Wisecracking, gum-chewing 12-year-old Gilly is well known in the foster system. Totally unmanageable, she has stayed with more families than she can remember and has outwitted them all. After all, how can she settle down when her real mother, the beautiful and glamourous Courtney, might be out there waiting for her? When Gilly is sent to live with the Trotters, the weirdest family yet, she isn’t planning to stick around. But cheerful, affectionate Maime Trotter isn’t giving up on Gilly just yet...

Found this on a local streaming platform (not one of the big ones) and I surely am glad that I did! It's a beautiful family movie which kinda reminded me of Nanny McPhee in a way and Abbot Elementary in some other way. It also reminded me of a classic, Fatal Attraction, because of Glenn Close. Check it out, it's a good one. Deserves a higher rating in my opinion.

Decent family movie that doesn't talk down to its target audience. The issues presented in the movie are dealt with in a real and honest way, and that is refreshing to see.
