    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!

    Uncle Nino is an outstanding portrayal of a busy family finding the value of true family love. In this crazy world in which we live, Uncle Nino is an oasis of family values. Finally, Hollywood got one film right.

    Written and directed by Robert Shallcross, and seemingly misdirected into theaters from its natural home on the ABC Family Channel, Uncle Nino is a sweet but not particularly distinguished effort.

    The elderly, violin-toting hero's successful attempt to infiltrate his miscreant nephew's mall-punk garage band is too creepy to fulfill the hipness quotient.

    There's not a single surprise or moment of dramatic tension in Uncle Nino, which has already proved itself a hit as a self-distributed film in the Midwest.
