saw the premier of this movie y'day without any expectations and I am very impressed and pleased with the presentation of the movie. I would definitely suggest others to watch this movie.

movie about the up's and down's of life, but full of positive emotions who come out of persons with a quite rough life.

a grumpy real estate sales person, who finds it hard to be happy. But, with a Rob Reiner movie, we KNOW that the main characters are going to fall in love and eventually be happy. Thank you, Rob! Throw in a little family dysfunction, a little sadness, and a little of life's discontent. However, add new family members, people going out of their way to help one another, and love blossoms all around. The songs Diane Keaton sings during her act are actually her singing. No stand in. Her songs are soulful and wonderful. Definite feel-good movie! Highly recommend!

it too hysterically like she does some times. They are well paired so it's not icky. Sterling Jerins the little girl from the Conjuring plays the grand daughter and she is very sweet and touching. Frances Sternhagen is a very welcome presence. Frankie Valli makes a too short cameo. Liked the jokes related to showing the house.Don't know why a delightful movie like this has been so savaged by critics. Compared to other recent rom coms with older actors, it is better than "Hope Springs" with Tommy Lee Jones and Meryl Streep which was cringe inducing and better than "It's Complicated" with Meryl and Alec Baldwin which felt forced and contrived.

have experienced - and some of which I wish I had experienced. Movies such as these remind us, also, of the value of looking ahead to what life can hold no matter the number of years that have crinkled your brows.

watching that film. This is a good movie. It is engaging and poignant, and has lines particularly those from Frances Sternhagen that are hilarious. Yes, the theatre was not full when I went, and those in attendance were over 50. I'm not sure why critics would be so upset, just because a movie plays to a particular demographic...My only complaint about Mr. Reiner whose directorial efforts seem to be continually skewered is that he really didn't need to play the piano player....otherwise, this film works, just as many other older rom-coms do. The supporting cast is uniformly excellent and the only clichéd scene is the abrupt childbirth sequence.This is a good movie.

agreeing to make mountains out of mole hills by drinking real suds and sliding caviar down your gullet while both of you were wallowing through, yawn, 'just another movie' from your leather couch after watching 'just another movie' in a privileged theatre viewing.And that is why I do not give a leaping leprechaun for what the 'real critics' write about movie reviews anymore. Oh, I confess that I might sneak a peak at a 'new movie!' review in, gasp!, a real newspaper before the public of viewers get to shag or rage about it on the ever present internet. But, for me, what matters is what the poor sods who clog our streets, scraping popcorn off the pavement to survive another day, have to say. Why? For us poor sods who are simply looking for a short escape away from our boring, or oversexed, lives yes, the latter is me! Yeah, right! I did see a flying Leprechaun just swing by in the trees of my small town jungle! , a movie either means something or it doesn't.In my estimation, this movie means something because it actually challenged my emotions... yeah, I even cried a little in parts of it, male hard guy that I am. It is well acted, at least enough so that it seems to have some possible realities in it while allowing us that little bit of fantasy we really, really need. And it is an easy watch with Diane Keaton in it, fulfilling the possibility that aging romance can actually be fun and sexy. And that it is a possibility because? I am old.So, yeah, if I had Michael Douglas' apparent money bags, I would buy this movie and store it so that, one day, I could take it down and go soggy sentimental over the premise of the possibilities for 'true love' at any stage of our life that the movie tries to sell us.Perhaps the problem is that whomever labels these things is some infamous flying Leprechaun who sits up in some tree and swings this movie's credits into a 'romantic comedy' when it is more about soft romantic reflection.It did not make me laugh that much. But it did make me smile, and even with the memories of what love can really be, was good enough to mellow me out for one evening... and leave me hoping that I might have time, one day, to watch it again, not for the moody comedy it sometimes broke into but because, hey, I am a guy who even likes a little romantic reflection once in a while.Even if I have not seen a flying Leprechaun lately.
