Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

norton27 First time I have watched this one and I was very moved. Never heard of this movie? Glad I stumbled across it. I love Jack Lemmon. Thought I had seen almost everything he has done? Ted Danson was terrific in this movie. I was really impressed with Ted's versatility, drama, comedy and real emotions. Great flick. Brought back many memories. Almost a mirror image of the last days I spent with my dad, especially the "hug" scene. In that generation we "quietly" showed our love for our parents and siblings. Really sad that folks wait so long to enjoy their families. I could really relate to this movie. They don't make em like Jack anymore. Really do miss him.

Rosemary (zelda1964) A Family is so important in life,especially in times of crisis and turmoil.Danson(of Cheers fame),plays a divorced yuppie who must return home to care for his aging mother(Dukakis)and father(Lemmon).He has a son he hardly knows, and is overly obsessive in business.He is faced with the knowledge, of his father's shortcomings and weakness to stand up to a domineering wife.Lemmon plays a man resigned to her "take-over" attitude he accepts.It is heart wrenching to face any diagnosis;Danson's character screams, when a doctor goes against his wishes of silence about the father's condition. It would show a poor lack of ethics in the medical community.I gather from the film, the importance of strengthening family ties and relationships. Life is unpredictable, but the certainty is true Love and compassion for others.

khleophee One of the most moving and delightful movies I've seen. Jack Lemmon and Ted Danson are superb. A good old fashion movie for the whole family. I wish they would make more movies like this. I lost my Dad to cancer a few years ago and I could relate to so many things in this movie that I shared with him. I only wish I would have done more. I think this picture will inspire many of us to realize just how precious the moments we spend with our aging parents are. Sometimes we take them for granted. I think we should spend more time having fun with them and let them enjoy the good things. Not spend all the time with medication and symptoms of aging. As I get older I realize someday it will be my turn and I hope I can see and enjoy my family till the end.
