| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfA charming tale of community interaction, Greek soulfulness without the "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" amplification, and golf. |
| Common Sense MediaSandie Angulo ChenPredictable but sweet family-friendly golf comedy. |
| Los Angeles TimesKimber MyersDirected by Michael Achilles Nickles, the movie can’t maintain a consistent tone, veering from earnestness to silliness like a bad slice. |
| User ReviewKathy GFantastic movie! The little girl's character, Stella, was amazing. Very Greek movie, filmed on the Greek island of Rhodes. Swing Away accurately portrayed Greek customs and life in a small village. |

| User ReviewPhyllis HIt's rare to come across a movie that the whole family can watch. This movie was fun and moved well. The scenery was absolutely gorgeous! I wish they would release this more broadly so I could go see it again! |
| User ReviewEffy SA great family movie - not intense as most movies I've seen recently. An authentic movie of Greek life, family and culture and very heartwarming. This beautiful movie was filmed on the island of Rhodes with a great cast - a must see movie! |
