Critic Reviews

Mr. Showbiz Kevin Maynard

Yields beguiling nectar. Read full review

Jack Mathews

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

This Australian tear-jerker finds more humor than you'd imagine possible in the story of a dying woman getting to know her adult children. Read full review

Dana Stevens

The general talent and dedication of the ensemble mitigate the script's occasional lapses into sentimentality and noisy confrontation. Read full review

Chuck Wilson

Jonathan Foreman
