A little gem of a movie. They could have done a little more with Rose's character but all in all a very enjoyable and slightly heartbreaking experience. James Brolin in a cowboy hat is always going to work. Still hot after all those years.

It wasn't a great movie; maybe, not even a good movie, but, I enjoyed it unlike any other movie for its honesty, authenticity, and sweetness.

So boring I just couldn't finish it! Pam Grier had the only interesting character, and she was only in it for a moment.Cybil Shepard had one facial expression and it was not a pleasant one. James Brolin was trying too hard to be folksy and failed!

It's hard not to get caught up in Rose's fate, especially with Shepherd infusing her portrayal of the spunky character with subtle grace notes. Brolin is equally good, movingly conveying the loneliness and pathos underlying Max's good humor.

Gary Goldstein

Los Angeles Times

Unfortunately, the romance zigzags in and out too much to effectively drive the narrative and inform the dying Rose's emotional arc in the way, by all rights, it should have.

James Croot

Stuff.co.nz

Clearly designed as a vehicle for the now 68-year-old former Moonlighting and The Last Picture Show star, Rose's mature drama can't overcome a pile-up of plot contrivances and cliched action.

Rated: 2.5/5
