GamerTab That was an excellent one.
BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
richard-04439 Tamplin's is just dialing this in , her acting was hammy at times. The script was light and missed the opportunity of an interesting premise.
shereen333 This was a sad use of good acting. Although Lily Tomlin delivers brilliant acting with excellent character development, there's nothing else to this film. It's rather boring, over all with not much to the story line, there's minimal plot, at best. What's really disappointing is that IMDb listed this ad a comedy first. I'm not sure why it's listed as a comedy at all, it's in no way humorous.
vincentlynch-moonoi I don't know why I watched this film. In the beginning, curiosity -- how does Lily Tomlin look in her mid-70s. But why I kept watching it, I don't know. There was so much in it I didn't have the taste for. ABORTION being the driving force of the plot. Characters that were all at the "it's hard to like them" end of the spectrum. Very low budget.But, I did watch it...all the way through. Tomlin was never a favorite of mine. I didn't like her or dislike her. She does okay here, but her character is pretty unlikable...although the most likable of the bunch, and that's not saying much. And, she certainly does look old here; kind of a mess. No makeup wasted.Julia Garner is the daughter in need of an abortion. She was also "okay". No great shakes.The best actress of the bunch was Marcia Gay Harden, although this role -- as the daughter, mother -- wasn't very substantial in of screen time, though necessary to the plot.Interestingly, John Cho and Sam Elliot are here, though you might wonder why. Guess they needed work.The story -- a girl needing money for an abortion -- is really an excuse for us to meet these various characters. I didn't really enjoy meeting them.So why did I watch it? I still don't know.
moonspinner55 Lily Tomlin as an elderly, semi-retired poet and lesbian at the end of her rope: her latest girlfriend has left her, she's flat broke, she's not speaking to her daughter…and, her teenage granddaughter has just turned up on her doorstep needing $630 for an abortion. Small-scaled road-movie with chapter-stops for the various people in Tomlin's life who help her, want to help her, or shut the door on her. Tragic-comedy in the modern age, plain-spoken (with reams of foul language) and bursts of violent temperament (some of it verging, unsuccessfully, on parody). Writer-director Paul Weitz allows his star lots of room to emote, to sound off, to be belligerent and stubborn, and even occasionally be funny. The tone of the movie is hard to pin down, with situations that waver between the realistic and the absurd (sometimes in the same scene). While the film is exhausting, it is also rewarding, with a nicely screwy grandma-granddaughter bond between Tomlin and young Julia Garner. A visit to the house of former-flame Sam Elliott doesn't quite wash (and his scary demeanor introduces an ugly undercurrent to the movie); also, the events during the final jaunt are too broad, simply padding the running-time. The closing moments, however, are terrific, ending the story on a wistful, hopeful/not hopeful note that is entirely appropriate for the central character. **1/2 from ****
