Nonnas

"One of those rare films a viewer can watch with mom. Or nonna."

"Like comfort food, may be a little obvious, a little safe, but that’s the point."

"With all these nice ingredients simmering, Nonnas ends up being a real treat."

"Corny and cloying..."

"A perfectly digestible advertisement for Enoteca Maria, both through its decadent food photography and successful evocation of the warmth of a hard-built community."

"Innocuous to a fault, murderously fond of tarantellas on the soundtrack, and doesn’t come within hawk-and-spit distance of authentic charm."

"The actors always find the grace notes, and there are sparks in the way everyday exchanges turn sharp with compassion."

"...the result is ultimately palatable."
