A Deadly Adoption
This story tells about a different drama and an influential decision in both spouses' lives. That story began with a couple when they decided to take a pregnant woman who looked innocent in the hope of adopting her unborn child. Maybe it will be wrong and there will probably be unexpected events for both spouses hoping to change things.

The sendup never came, and once you accepted that Mr. Ferrell and Ms. Wiig were playing it straight, you also realized that the movie wasn't very good even by Lifetime standards, which are not exactly lofty.

Adoption is a fun oddity instead of the minor cultural moment it could have been.

So with apologies to all concerned, what on Earth was the point of that?

Despite the movie's best intentions, it fails to deliver most of the expected humor that you'd think would come from watching Wiig and Ferrell play it straight.

Beyond Ferrell, Wiig and company's superficial assurance at keeping the one-joke premise going (right up to a climactic musical number that elicits a chuckle or two), the film feels disconnected and utterly disposable.
