Stephen Farber The Hollywood Reporter While this road movie may not have great originality or huge box-office potential, it's a low-key charmer with a large-souled performance at its center. May 15, 2014 Full Review Robert Abele Los Angeles Times The script (by director Gary Lundgren with James Twyman) is modestly feel-good to a fault and the scenery expectedly beautiful, but it's the unforced acting providing the most nourishment. May 9, 2014 Full Review Bill Edelstein Variety Solid acting overcomes a lack of dynamic tension in this family-friendly film. Apr 15, 2014 Full Review Rob Gonsalves Rob's Movie Vault It is, among other things, a sharp distaff rejoinder to the male-centered, sour-faced "Nebraska." Rated: B Jul 14, 2015 Full Review Mark R. Leeper Mark Leeper's Reviews worth the trip to appreciate the acting Rated: 7/10 Jun 30, 2014 Full Review Marc Mohan Oregonian Shirley Knight gives a winning lead performance, and the film captures the beauty of Southern Oregon landscapes.

zip s There is the movie genre of low concept. This is more like no concept, no script, no plot, no acting, Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie should be renamed grandma needs a bath Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Wonderful movie. No pretentious or "gorgeous" actors. And better yet, no hugely famous actors. Real story line, great acting. Heartwarming, interesting to watch, beautiful nature scenes. This is film making! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member a slow n gentle adult movie i enjoyed very much-nice 2c tom skerritt in a film too. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Another wee fable about being old - these are very appealing these days! Unlike 'The Great Beauty' watched recently, this is a low-key, largely straight narrative, focusing on the central character's inner process and outward journey. A pleasure to watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Very vanilla, made for TV movie. Not the end of the world, I've seen worse... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
