Critic Reviews
Undercut by funereal pacing and an ending that seems more than a little contrived.
The material has enough meat to enable charitable viewers to drift in and out, but the result is too arch to conjure up much affection.
It's filled with far too much talk and it never justifies its length, but if you succumb to its old-fashioned Renoir style of storytelling, The Grandfather has its pleasures.
