Reviews & comments

Variety
pressIf the movie never quite masters the feel of messy, grown-up life, it at least makes a few promising salvos in that direction...

Time Out
pressProbably the biggest sin in a movie filled with many is turning Fonda into a nymphomaniacal sight gag who makes Barbarella look like Gloria Steinem.

The New York Times
pressInstead of smiles or tears... most likely to inspire a Kickstarter campaign to reunite its main performers for a different project.

The Guardian
pressTotally aimble, utterly unmoving filler given a major shot in the arm by its cast...

The Dissolve
pressStruggles in vain to meld broad, farcical comedy with low-key, contemplative drama.

Sydney Morning Herald
pressIt stays in safe terrain, and the ensemble cast members often feel as if they have been selected to revisit familiar characters and performances.
