Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTH

The movie begins with these kids sneaking into a carnival after hours and turning everything back on. The ride goes nuts and they're able to get away before the security guard catches them. 
Cut to this rich dude speeding down a rural road. His name is Michael and he's driving to meet with a social worker at his sisters house. His sister & brother-in-law passed away and he thinks he's just going to sign some paper work. Turns out, he needs to watch his nephews until she finds a foster family for them. The kids are a lot. They live on this massive farm and just do whatever they want and Michael doesn't have time for this. He's got a big work presentation he is working on but the kids won't let him work. 
These kids keep messing with Michael and he has no idea what to do, so it's a lot of that. Michael keeps having to go into town to take calls because he's worried his boss is going to give his big project to his rival, Dog Face Devin. And keeps bumping into the social worker. 
Slowly, he begins to find his footing around the kids and they begin to understand each other a little more. 
When the opportunity presents itself for the kids to go live elsewhere but they'd be split up, Michael opts to stick around. 
There is this family in town that may be interested in adopting all the kids. Best part? They're rich. They get invited to come to their Christmas party and it's going great until the kids put a brick on the gas of a golf cart and it plows through a massive nativity set into the swimming pool. 
There's another prospective foster mom but after meeting with her, it becomes clear she's just in it for the money.
Then Mike is hit with a big blow - his project is being taken from him and given to Dog Face Devin. 
The kids mom taught ballet and the kids are pretty good themselves. One of the kids, Junior, even wrote a "Much Better Nutcracker". Mike, who suddenly has a lot of free time, tells the kids that they're going to put the show on! 
They work hard to prepare for the event and they're all ready to go. Before the show, he's talking to Gretchen, the social worker. When she finds out that all of this is just to get attention on the kids to find them a foster family, she tells him that the kids are growing attached to him. He tells them that he loves them but there's no way he could take care of 4 pain in the butt kids. Unfortunately, one of the kids overhears this. Before he can fix things, he gets a call - his boss wants him back. He goes to tell the kids it's time to start the show but he discovers that they're gone. Michael goes on stage and tells the people that the show is cancelled. When everyone leaves, they see that the kids are doing the show outside at their parents memorial. 
The show is a big success. During the performance, the oldest boy, Justice, stabs Mike with his prop sword as he feigns an injury. He finally comes to the realization that he loves his nephews. After the show, he promises he's not going to leave them.
