Leave your thoughts about Sunset Story.
| NewsdayJohn AndersonBesides being funny about themselves and their contemporaries, the women provide a window on the social evolution of the United States over the past century. |
| PopMattersBill Gibron[Sunset Story] isn't a movie about retired activists. It's a stunning meditation on the battle between mission and mortality. |
| Film Journal InternationalMaria GarciaSunset Story hardly qualifies as a documentary. It's a home movie, complete with spasmodic editing and silly panning shots, punctuated by mawkish piano music. |
| VarietyRobert KoehlerTender, sensitive Sunset Story sidesteps a maudlin tone for a wide-ranging account of two fragile but opinionated retirees. |
| TV GuideKen FoxAside from the women themselves, the most remarkable thing about Gabbert's unexpectedly entertaining film is how effortlessly it dispels misconceptions about the elderly. |
