Reviews

Tampa Bay Times -
Director John Madden and an ensemble of polished actors in their second primes make this a constant amusement and a nice alternative at the movies.
|
|
Empire -
Charming, delightful and amusing - just what you'd expect from the star-studded cast of veterans.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
Even at its most predictable, the winning characterizations and soulful insights into aging keep the handsome film on a warmly satisfying track.
|
|
Variety -
The powerhouse cast is so capable, the actors just about manage to play the picture as if it were a "Midsummer Night's Dream"-style frothy farce, with marigold garlands and picturesque poverty.

|
The New Yorker -
Judi Dench is especially good; playing a vulnerable character, for a change, she allows her habitual toughness to give way to uncertainty, fear, and moments of gathering resolve, and she delivers one of her most wide-ranging and moving performances. [7 May 2012, p. 81]
