Nonnas

Who? I need to know the person so I could send a big warm thanks. Its a story so worthy to tell, it's light, it's warm and it is about family. I wish the restaurant was closer to home so I could taste the flavours of it all. I loved the nonnas, loved to see Susan Sarandon shine and loved Vince! This is a must watch movie if you ever miss home.

I miss my nonna so much and this brought tears to my eyes. Not in a sad way though, it was tears remembering all the good times we had around the beautiful and joyful table she used to make for us.

I love when people make movies to make you feel good and embraced. The world needs it! I needed it!

Thank you!!!!!

No sex and no dirty language, and guess what, no movie ever needs that. These feel-good movies are what we need more of.

Who doesn't love their nonna? It's an underdog movie. It has some humor. But it was the end that brought a feel-good tear to my eye. You couldn't help but want the restaurant to succeed for no other reason than Joe and the nonnas.

Where most cultures have the den as the place to hang out with company, but in cultures like Italian, French, and Greek, it's the kitchen. Kitchens are happy places in those cultures. They truly cook not out of necessity but love and enjoyment.

This one's worth watching.

A bit romance, some humor, fun Italian-family references. Just don't expect much; it comes across as light as a Hallmark movie.

Susan Sarandon stands out, well above the Star, Vince Vaughan. Nice to see Brenda Vaccaro, Lorraine Bracco, and Talia Shire. But I just expected more meat to the story.

I think the days of I'll-buy-a-restaurant movies is over. The Bear shows the real grit. That theme here is a bit glossy. I also love a movie that has strong pivot points, a must according to Syd Field's instruction. I just didn't see any of the fun surprises here. The pitfalls and successes were pretty easy to spot coming around the corner.

I just watched the movie "Nonna" and I am going to watch it again! This movie is funny, touching, heartwarming AND family friendly. Anyone who has been close to a grand parent will love this movie. While my grandmother wasn't Italian, she had many Amish and Pennsylvania Dutch recipes that were lost with her passing. I didn't have to pause the movie when my grandchildren walked in, but I did rewind because I didn't want to miss a minute of this movie. The actors were spot on and ajoy to watch. I love to see older Hollywood talent! This movie is a must see! This movie deserves some type of award. LOVED IT!

The movie was a good use of two hours. Vince plays a man suffering from a loss and decides to honour the people that mattered most to him, in one of the ways they showed loved to him.

Through it we get to follow several characters and their journeys, both the main character and four elderly women finding life far more enjoyable. Through just like Vance, putting love in to their food. It sounds cheesy but it works quite well, the setbacks feel real however the one thing holding it back is the ending. While heartwarming and sweet, it also is quite abrupt. From the biggest set back to almost instant resolution. However it's not enough to hold it back from being worth watching.
