Why It Rocks

 * 1) The acting is pretty solid and the cast does the best they can with the poor script.
 * 2) There are some heartwarming moments especially the ending where they showed out pain when Lizzie is getting a new family.
 * 3) Pete and Ellie are likable characters, albeit to an extent.
 * 4) The jokes can get a good chuckle, most notably the line "I WANT MY CHIPS!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!".
 * 5) The portrayal of the hardships of foster parenting is actually spot-on.
 * 6) October, a minor character portrayed by Iliza Schlesinger who is a single woman in her 30s looking to adopt a teenager and turn him into a sports superstar, is pretty funny.
 * 7) It's safe to say that this movie is nicely relatable to a lot of people who has issues with their families like the screaming little kid is still likable and funny at the same time and the teenage girl is like a teenage girl in real life.
 * 8) The film referenced the famous Barbie doll from the franchise of the same name, similar to something from like Toy Story 3. Heck, a number of other toy franchises even managed to make cameos in this film.
 * 9) It's not afraid to make fun of people for their bad behavior like when they made fun of perverts and people who uses drugs.
 * 10) A lot of good soundtracks and music that managed to be in the film are good and well fitting for the film.
