Len and Company...never strains for profundity. Instead, it savors observational subtleties, especially in Mr. Ifans’s assured performance. For a baby-boomer-meets-millennial family drama, that’s plenty. Read full review

You think you can guess what happens next, but the beauty of Tim Godsall's film, adapted from a play by Carly Mensch, is that it eschews the obvious arcs and come-to-Jesus moments of your typical Bad Dad pics. Read full review

The Film Stage Jared Mobarak

The film proves more than its conventional story presumes. We’ve seen its depiction of mid-life and quarter-life crises—many times with the music industry at its back—but this newest iteration possesses an authenticity rendering it worthwhile nonetheless. Read full review

Amid the film’s narrative lulls and lapses, it’s the actors who hold our attention. Read full review

Thanks to Ifans, though, this remains a watchable film, one that, perhaps like Len himself, falls short of its potential. Read full review

Most effective in its quiet dialogue-heavy scenes, the picture stumbles when anything more dramatic is required. Read full review

According to Len, rock ‘n roll is "blood, bourbon, and napalm," and it’s exactly those elements that the film needs, but doesn’t provide. Read full review

Loved it! Recommend it! Terrific film with wonderful star turn for Rhys Ifans, the usual 'can't take your eyes off of her' performance from Juno Temple and a great drop-in from Kathryn Hahn. Its a story that is relatable, dark, hysterical, poignant and plausible all at the same time. And itLoved it! Recommend it! Terrific film with wonderful star turn for Rhys Ifans, the usual 'can't take your eyes off of her' performance from Juno Temple and a great drop-in from Kathryn Hahn. Its a story that is relatable, dark, hysterical, poignant and plausible all at the same time. And it refuses to resolve everything in a syrupy sweet happy ending, going for what "resolutions" the characters are credibly capable of. Well worth the watch!… Expand
