| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanLen Cariou is touching as a widower whose pain has left him in a daze, Joseph Bologna has a great speech about senior bachelorhood, and Dyan Cannon, at 69, is still a flower. |
| Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenA thoughtful and nicely observed dramedy about a group of AARP-sters grappling with life, loss, love and -- gasp -- sex in a South Florida "active adult community." |
| Arizona Daily StarPhil Villarreal"Boynton Beach Club" can warm a heart of any age. |
