Stylish but barely mediocre overall

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

It's a great and really nice movie, deserves better rate then it has right now, the acting ain't bad at all, actually the acting to me seems superb, the movie is touching and i really like it, the movie is about two people, Sally and Jason Danville who were recently given four kids into their custody cause their mom and dad were in an accident, it shows how they struggle to be their parents sense they never were parents before but at least they are trying, at first they thought about giving them away to another family but they changed their mind about it and on the end they adopted them, but you probably expected that, it is the kind of movie a lot of us already watched but some people haven't and may enjoy this kind of movie, you will definitely enjoy watching this movie.

Initially I thought this was a comedy, but it turned out to be more of a family drama. But that wasn't bad, because it was really quite a surprise of a movie. I was thoroughly entertained by it, and also touched by the story.The story is about Sally Danville (played by Brooke White) and Jason Danville (played by Joe Flanigan) who are having great careers and great prospects for the future, when they are trusted with the well-being and caring for the four children of Sally's friend and her husband, who died in an accident. And they have to adjust to family life, putting their own needs on hold and making big sacrifices.The acting in the movie was good, and there was good chemistry between Brooke White and Joe Flanigan. In the role of Dorothy, a social worker with child's care, was Phylicia Rashad. Now she looks like she haven't aged a bit since the Cosby Show, she looks great, and she did a good job in the movie, despite having a minor role only. The four kids were played by Jayme Lynn Evans (playing Jordan), Bobby Soto (playing Javier), Jakobe Dempsey (playing Kaleb) and Clarissa Suwoko (playing Sung-Lee). These youngsters also portrayed their roles quite nicely. Most memorable was the youngest, though, Clarissa Suwoko.Now, "Change of Plans" is very political correct and ethnically correct, as the children represents one from each racial group; white, Asian, African and Latino. It was a bit weird to have a family put together with this ingredient, but it worked out well for the movie, because everyone brought their own unique touch and culture to the bigger picture."Change of Plans" has a very warm and caring story to tell, and I am sure that it will have some people in tears at certain points. However, once the movie ended, I somewhat sat with the sensation of that the movie was somehow lacking something, that it could have been something more than what it turned out to be. Mind you, I am not saying it is a bad movie, I honestly did like it quite a bit.This movie is a great movie to watch as a family or together with your loved one, because it is an emotional moving movie, and also good entertainment.

wow, now walmart also into movie production. this movie is just too bland like one of the movies produced by hallmark or life, so tasteless and so predictable with bad acting and storyline. a movie just for high school leveled housewives under the age of 25 and for their kids. the American idol finalist now got an opportunity to be an actor but i have to say that by playing the wife, the couple just acted like a bad sitcom soap opera. there's no convincing and believable chemistry between them at all. she was just like what she could do on the stage, banging the piano, singing the lukewarm songs. this is horrible movie, and i am suspicious that one of the other two reviewers given high scores could be a high ranking walmart person just wanted to promote this tasteless and tiresome movie produced by them.

It became clear from the beginning that it was ALL about her, PERIOD. There was no chemistry between Flanigan and White....... The bedroom scene was even more tidied up than fifties TV series, other than sleeping in twin beds........... I did not expect any sort of graphic intimacy, but what I did expect was some sort of romance between this young married couple other than an occasional platonic peck on the check. Finally, their home was as sterile as their relationship which just added to the boredom factor. I am frankly deeply disappointed as I had much higher hopes. Just hope this turkey does not make it to a series, because as much as I love Joe Flanigan, I just don't think I could suffer through anymore. BTW don't write off the above by saying "its family entertainment after all" because that does not wash. There have been really good examples of family viewing and this is not one of them.
