The Quints Are Ruining Kimberly's Life, 30 May 2009
8/10
Author: bkoganbing from Buffalo, New York

Quints despite what you might obviously think is not a film about the birth of quintuplets. It's about the experience of being an older sibling to those quintuplets and the film is seen and narrated through the eyes of their 14 year old sister played by Kimberly J. Brown.

I have to say this is one of the better products to come from the Magic Kingdom I've seen in recent years. The cast is very appealing and it's done in such a way that an adult on in years such as myself can empathize with the plight of a 14 year old girl just lost in the shuffle over these babies.

Kimberly J. Brown really makes the film, she's a nice normal 14 year old girl just looking to make her niche in the world and she hasn't quite found the thing that moves her. She comes from a pair of normal parents who if anything are a pair of overachievers. Daniel Roebuck and Elizabeth Moorehead want what's best for their daughter, but their vision of what's best clouds the view.

They've got their financial problems and of course with five extra mouths to feed, they seem to multiply. But when media consultant Vince Corazza appears on the scene with all kinds of moneymaking ideas for the Quints, the future is bright.

The problem is that young Ms. Brown is finally finding herself under the tutelage of a caring art teacher James Kalls. This does lead to a family crisis of sorts.

Of course it all is resolved in good Disney fashion. But the film itself is charming. I liked the performances of Roebuck and Moorehead as the decent parents whose heads get a bit turned by the prospect of all that money to be made in exploiting the Quints. And there is a very portrayal of Don Knotts as the state governor who doesn't like to miss his photo opportunities.

All in all a very nice family film from the Disney Studios.
