When Lady Sandra Abbott discovers that her husband of 40 years is having an affair with her best friend, she seeks refuge in London with her estranged, older sister Bif. The two could not be more different - Sandra is a fish out of water next to her outspoken, serial dating, free-spirited sibling. But different is just what Sandra needs at the moment, and she reluctantly lets Bif drag her along to a community dance class, where she starts finding her feet.

Critics Consensus

Finding Your Feet wears its heart on its sleeve, elevating undemanding material with a feel-good romance and sweet performances from its over-qualified cast.

Leah Pickett

Chicago Reader

The cast is entertaining, if a tad performative, and some shockingly funny moments distract from an otherwise predictable plot.

Austin Chronicle

Above all, what lifts Finding Your Feet off the ground is its amazing cast, who comprise a lineup that is must-see no matter the playground they're corralled into.

Rated: 2/5

Globe and Mail

Oh dear. This is one of those British light entertainments that pop up every few years, jam-packed with thespians having a jolly time making something commercial for the simple folk.

Rated: 2/4

Herald Sun (Australia)

A very middle-of-the-road British comedy-drama, making tracks for the same mature-age crowd that loves their Best Exotic Marigold Hotel movies, and wish there were more of them. No shame in that, really...

Rated: 2.5/5

Third Coast Review

For the most part, the movie avoids diving headfirst into sentimentality, but it's also not afraid to give us no choice but to turn on the waterworks ever so slightly.

This is an easy, light watch. Its a fair bit cheesy and predictable I suppose but it has a good cast and it featured some amusing moments. Its not a great film but its not an awful one, its distinctly watchable and alright but thats about it. I wouldn't expressly recommend it, no.

The big black hole here is the rich lady leaves the insufferable cheating husband without seeing a divorce attorney to claim her rightful half the estate so she doesn't have to mooch off her sister living in a council house who can barely afford to keep her. Overlooking this obvious detail early on, rather than working it into the story, makes the film unbelievable. Besides that, we've seen this film plot many times before. No mystery, no challenge, no plot twists. If they gave a BAFTA for BLAH this would take the prize.

A surprisingly good British Comedy Finding Your Feet is a charming and funny comedy with an excellent cast. Some Rude scenes but altogether a brilliant and sweet comedy about being defiant and picking yourself up again. 4 Stars!

This movie is much better than some of the reviews I have seen. Great storyline, and great performances by Timothy Spall and Imelda Staunton. Easy watch, great movie.

Terrible predictable British cast of ‘treasures' bumbling through a load of obvious plot lines with no difficult questions addressed - insurance? Oversight? (Am avoiding spoilers, hoping you get it if you are forced to sit through it by your significant other).
