  1. A solid family film that strikes a shrewd balance between tough-mindedness and sentimentality and boasts a fine cast.

    Heartwarming is not always a bad thing.
  3. It's all neat and sweet and one-dimensional, more the moral to a story than a story.

    Uncle Nino is a fun movie to see! The characters were familiar to real life for me--midwestern middle class suburbia. A man who works long hours to provide for his family has forgotten what is truly important in life. Enjoy this movie! Expand
