      Patricia B This film was beautifully done. You could tell the mother was grieving and her acting was superb. Watch it to the end and you won't be sorry. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Touching movie. I was moved to tears at times. Thought the main actress and girl who played Justine were good! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/01/22 Full Review Audience Member A well-acted, conscientious look at the difficult dynamics of family and dealing with disability. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Not a bad little independent movie . The female lead was hardly tolerable for most of the movie . Which killed a lot of the movie’s goodwill for me. However by the end she sorta comes around . To me the child actors really shined . I would empty my Que or watch list first. Definitely not a must see . But you could probably do worse. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/28/21 Full Review Audience Member Very heartwarming film! At first I thought it was going to be very similar to Fundementals of Caregiving, but I was wrong! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Visually ugly and then utterly boring, inconclusive and unrealistic. The leading character is totally incoherent in the way she cares for the sick kid almost immediately for no apparent reason while totally not giving a damn about her two lovely kids for the whole movie. The way she gets hired for the job with no qualifications and the worst attitude ever, the liberties she takes with her employers about their kid etc.. one thing is the suspension of belief and another is having a pile of nonsense crammed down my throat as a viewer. The woman who solely wrote and directed it should have been more humble and looked from some professional assistance from a co-writer cause she obviously lacked some objective judgement about her work. A missed opportunity. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Robert Abele Los Angeles Times "Justine" recalls the golden era of the conscientious, well-acted movie of the week: a slice of life built around hardships, but without exploiting them. Apr 2, 2020 Full Review Natalia Winkelman New York Times The movie is a tightly observed character study that thins out during more expositional moments, but it's still a thoughtful tale of loneliness and its remedies. Mar 19, 2020 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation The performances are just winning enough to lead us down this familiar, formulaic path, one more time. Rated: 2.5/4 Mar 26, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
