Beauty and the Beast - DVD

The day came when once happily childless house-flippers Pete and Ellie Wagner (Mark Wahlberg, Rose Byrne) took a hard look at their lives, and chose to open home and hearts to a foster kid. They found the troubled teen (Isabela Moner) they settled on was a package deal with two no-less-challenged younger sibs (Gustavo Quiroz Jr., Julianna Gamiz)... and they had to dog-paddle fast in the deep end of parenting. Sean Anders' amiable farce co-stars Octavia Spencer, Tig Notaro, Margo Martindale. 119 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Wells classic stars Tom Cruise as Ray Ferrier, a divorced New Jersey Everyman whose weekend with his kids (Dakota Fanning, Justin Chatwin) is shattered by an alien invasion.
