Reviews

Village Voice - Amy Nicholson
This movie is a narrow character piece that shows Pacino wrestling to reveal layers in a man who's worried he might actually be hollow. He and Fogelman string together dozens of small, perfect moments.
67
The A.V. Club - Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
This is the kind of thing that should come effortlessly to Pacino, one of the all-time greats of American acting, but no longer does. In fact, this qualifies as his best and most easygoing film performance in a good decade.
63
Slant Magazine - Elise Nakhnikian
The chemistry between Pacino and his cast mates gives this lightly amusing contrivance surprising emotional resonance.
60
Variety - Scott Foundas
Beneath the sitcom cutesiness and boldfaced sentimentality, the film manages to keep just enough reality coursing through to stay grounded.
60
Time Out - Joshua Rothkopf
Al Pacino’s done so much Acting over the last 25 years (hoo-ah), it’s disquieting to see him digging deep again—often with subtlety—into a rich role with hidden depths.
