| VarietySteven OxmanJewison, Deakins and editor Ronald Sanders keep everything fluid, providing multiple camera angles on scenes that are physically still. |

| MovieholeClint MorrisWould be better filmed as a play, but as it is, is a wonderfully performed relationship drama |
| User ReviewPrivate Uthis is one of my favourite dennis Quaid movies it's a tear Jerker but it's good to watch while relaxing! |
| User ReviewLesley MA real look atwhat marriage could be and what it shouldnt be. |
| User ReviewSean DI loved it. It's such an intense drama about relationships and marriage and what happens over the years. Completely realistic. This movie is probably fairly obscure to find, but I randomly own it and finally watched it. It's a rough watch, solely based on the dialogue. Nothing else really. The points made in the conversation are hard hitting and can affect anybody's relationship, it doesn't matter who it is. An amazing film for anyone to watch. |
| User ReviewAlexis Ma very grown up and challenging movie that reveals just how close good friends can be in wrecking your psyche. Dennis Quaid's explanation in the restaraunt moves me. |
| User ReviewRachel MA favorite. Fantastic film about a group of friends dealing with love, relationship, family, and friendship. Brilliant! |
