bruce C @bruce999 8h underrated story, is fun to watch... as a family tries to get by in their business. Very well acted. See more 12/18/2015 NOT a comedy, and only a one note drama with one note characters. Bickering family bickers at each other. No compassion, no forgiveness, no laughter, no tears. Horrible. Just like diet pop - it should be sweet, but you can tell it's artificial, and any sweetness is overpowered by the bitter aftertaste. Depressing small movie about a family business that is failing and the crumbling marriage of the parents who are otherwise trying to hold everything together. They angrily cuss like sailors throughout at each other - the grown kids too, and there's nothing to endear Any of them. So, sadly you don't care about the characters, the family or the business, so when the cliche ending comes together and all is well, you are left feeling glad it's over. I hated it, stupid one note characters. even tho I otherwise like Jane Curtin - in ANYTHING else. Such a disappointment here. It gets one star for the one note story, one note characters, and one note emotional response. See more 12/11/2012 good lil indie drama about a man trying 2 save his restaurant. See more 11/27/2011 It's nice, with a happy ending, I'm sure there are lots of people in Giorgio's situation who hope there is one for them as well See more 11/09/2011 It was afair film Figuring out how to balance family and family business. The writer should of went in depth of the main character,to explain how things had turned out the way it did,not to be scattered storyline. See more 09/05/2011 Totally worth it for Danny Aiello's performance alone. See more Read all reviews
