Umbrella Academy is not your typical adopted family story. In fact it is the oddest assortment of children you will ever meet. The story draws you in and you can't stop watching episode after episode. Many of them with cliffhanger endings. Great visual effects and realism help to make the story come to life visually. I have enjoyed every moment. It may not be for the faint of heart. There is violence and gore and I would not suggest it for children under 12.
