Grandma

"The entire cast is great (...) Grandma is fun and brisk (...) It's about Lily Tomlin being a hilarious crank. It's a pleasure to watch her. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)" 

"An initially breezy family comedy about mothers, daughters and abortions that slowly sneaks up on you and packs a major wallop (...) This constantly surprising character piece should spark deserved awards chatter for Tomlin and at least one of her co-stars" 

"Tomlin and Elliot relive their characters’ pain and anger so deeply that they could very well both end up with Oscar nominations. (...) One of the year’s best movies (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)" 

"There is much to praise about this sweet, smart comedy of intergenerational conflict and solidarity.... But honestly, the wonder that is Grandma can be summed up in two words: Lily Tomlin." 

"Prepare yourself for a Lily Tomlin tour de force. (...) Lily Tomlin works miracles. (...) But no Oscar. Maybe Grandma will do the trick. (...) A scrappy delight (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" 

"Grandma is both smart and sweet, mature and bawdy (...) It is without a doubt one of the year's best films." 

"It more closely resembles Nebraska or About Schmidt, in which a crotchety elder road-trips to self-examination.(...) Weitz knows his muse. But he's smartly made room for Tomlin to explore her own wisdom"
