Critics Consensus

Strong performances and a lovely setting are half the battle for Made in Italy -- unfortunately, the other half is lost by a disappointingly slight story.

Times (UK)

There's nothing original here and, despite the real-life parallels, little authenticity.

Rated: 2/5

Daily Telegraph (UK)

Those in the market for domestic drama, sexual tension and humorous mishaps against a backdrop of sawing and sweeping would be advised to try any home renovation show over this.

Rated: 2/5

Guardian

Realism is clearly not a strong suit for writer-director James D'Arcy, but he gets pretty good comic performances from his likeable cast, which includes Lindsay Duncan as an acerbic estate agent.

Rated: 3/5

Decider

Ultimately, this is a family drama in the vein of Neeson’s lower-tier thrillers: It gets the job done with some efficiency, but it’s hard not to think of the many times Neeson himself has done similar, better movies.

MSB Reviews

Made in Italy has indeed an emotionally compelling father-son story that many viewers will surely connect with, but James D'Arcy's directorial and screenplay debut is not going to be remembered for long.

Ready Steady Cut

Made in Italy keeps the ball rolling on the problems of the rich and white in the Tuscan countryside — grab a number and get in line.

Junk. Neeson is asleep and his son is hopeless.

Every imaginable - and unimaginative - cliche is jammed in here. A weak plot, and time-worn tropes trotted out to fill the space. Proves that a good cast-list and great scenery can't redeem a vacuous screenplay.

Oh! after renewing Netflix, not finding the sort of movies I like, Voila! I find this Liam Neeson and son charmer that is slow at the start but bubbles up into a grief stricken reunion of father and son, and reminds us, that these two actually lost Natasha Richardson years earlier. I felt their sorrow but also love this romantically tragic tale come full circle, and under the Tuscan Sun, give me a few minutes of emotional satisfaction I rarely get from other films... Well Done. Kudos to Julian Ovendon, Lindsay Price, and of course, the lovely Italian siren who steals every scene. best viewed if you are sick of horror, violence, oversexualized and too graphic crap dominating our airwaves.
