Movie Reviews

Hollywood & Fine - 9/10 by Marshall FineNo one seems to have a clue about how to inject life into lifeless material...a cinematic meal of soft, bland fare only.
Detroit News - 9/10 by Tom LongA tasty tidbit of a film, Mid-August Lunch is one of those movies where almost nothing happens but it happens quite nicely.
Jam! Movies - 9/10 by Liz BraunThis is a small, perfectly delicious film. The actors are magical.
Times (UK) - 8/10 by Toby YoungThe beauty of this picture is that it doesn't shy away from depicting the indignities of growing old - not the least of which is that none of your children wants to look after you - and yet manages to invest all of its elderly characters with dignity.
Time Out - 8/10 by Kevin B. LeeThankfully, the actor-director prepares this potential recipe for hokeyness with all-natural ingredients, casting four of the feistiest biddies he could find, who are all the more endearing for being unadorned.
Daily Telegraph (UK) - 8/10 by Sukhdev SandhuElegantly shot, and with a terrific tango-infused score, this is a quiet gem.
Scotsman - 8/10 by Alistair HarknessSlight of plot but rich in character... A low-key gem.
Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA thoroughly delightful Italian film about a nurturing man who finds his caregiving responsibilities greatly expanded during a summer holiday.
Guardian - 8/10 by Catherine ShoardMid-August Lunch is a film of rare benevolence that treats its subjects with dignity and playfulness.
Film Comment Magazine - 8/10 by Nicolas RapoldShot handheld and mostly confined to the apartment, the film is (despite some mild food tourism) a delightful feat
