John, a busy, "always-on-the-run" executive, learns during a meeting that his mother may be dying and rushes home to her side. He ends up being his father's caretaker and becomes closer to him than ever before. In the process, he teaches his father to be more independent which causes problems with the man's wife. Estranged from his own son, the executive comes to realize what has been missing in his own life. As John, his father and his son slowly bond, and even his mother returns from the hospital, everything starts seeming right with the world - until dad goes to have a minor surgery only to come out of it demented and a shadow of his former self.

| Common Sense MediaBrian Costello'80s tearjerker portrays elderly with depth, dignity. |
| Video-Reviewmaster.comSteve CrumJack Lemmon and Ted Danson do great work as father and son. |
| MovieholeClint MorrisThree generations of great performances. A wonderful, touching film. |
| DVDTalk.comScott WeinbergThis is a maudlin and painfully pedantic piece of filmmaking, and it's not even bad enough to be consistently funny. |
| User ReviewMarty KI cry almost the whole movie everytime I watch it. |
| User ReviewJoel Atres touchant pour un film quon ne sattendais pas a regarder lol, jai aimé la facon de réagir différente des personnages, et senti vraiment un drame |

He was terrific. There were a lot of important lessons in this heartwarming movie. |
