And So It Goes does what it needs to do for its target audience in thoroughly sufficient, mediocre ways. Read full review

St. Louis Post-DispatchJoe WilliamsJul 24, 2014
If cranking out this kind of mediocre, head-scratching blarney is the only option available to Hollywood veterans like Reiner, we have some friendly advice: Open a haberdashery. Read full review

Boston GlobeTy BurrJul 24, 2014
And So It Goes looks like it was shot on outdated video equipment and has a forced, jokey script by Mark Andrus (”As Good As It Gets,” “Georgia Rule”). Read full review

Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsJul 24, 2014
The slapstick is awful; the pathos isn't much better, though it's far more plentiful. Read full review

Washington PostAnn HornadayJul 24, 2014
Reiner assembles a square meal of rom-com pleasure points, but it’s bland, by-the-numbers and not particularly memorable. Read full review

Just as Michael Douglas doesn't have it in his guts to make Oren a real son of a bitch (a grandpa Gekko), Diane Keaton's jangled neurotic tics lack any dramatic import. Read full review

The GuardianJordan HoffmanSep 9, 2014
Embarrassing for everyone involved not because of any squeamish subject matter – quite the contrary, seeing retirement-age characters are refreshing – but because the story structure is so fake and so plodding. Read full review

And So It Goes appears to be targeting an audience segment that rarely goes out to the movies — while providing them a cringe-worthy incentive to never do so again. Read full review
