Audience Member Uh, despite the aforementioned comments on Blake Edwards' memorable "Days of Wine and Roses," "Coming Up Roses" is a rare Welsh-language film set in Thatcherite UK that depicts mushroom cultivation in a small defunct theatre. An enjoyable enough light comedy, but the setup isn't explored enough in its critical and satirical possibilities. A missed opportunity. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member excellent movie depicting a husband and wife being destroyed by the disease of alcoholism. very depressing film, but not as gruelling as 'leaving las vegas.' Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Heart-wrenching... what a powerful movie. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Thought provoking, moving and delivered with perfection Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member You can't do better on the acting front, and the story is as heartbreaking and gut-wrenching as they come. It makes you think. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member jack lemmon is amazing in this ...i love this movie...and it shows you waht a great actor he is!!!
