AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

pik923 I gave it a 2 only because the acting was so good. However - yes a big however. I am a feminist,I am a radical feminist in fact. But I find a movie that treats abortion with such disregard as disturbing, disappointing and inhumane. Having worked in an abortion clinic - it is the most difficult decision any woman has to make. And to make it so unimportant as an issue with so much talent around it, it is really unfortunate. Not just the issue of abortion, but the issue of how women treat each other with so much anger and baggage and a man writes and directs it. Typical in a way. Sorry for Lily such a huge talent to be a part of this is disturbing. She is bigger and better than the flippant way many woman issues are addressed. The film never goes into any depth with any one character. It is a good idea as a script, how one life touches many and many touches one - but all in all, deeply disappointing. I don't want to go into too many specifics because then, if you haven't seen the film, the story line will be given away. And I don't like doing that or having that done to me.When will women write real films about real women and touch upon such sensitive issues with the sensitivity integrity and honesty that it deserves without depending upon the male point of view that in fact almost belittles everything that makes women women and lesbians lesbians and human dynamics, more human.

shereen333 This was a sad use of good acting. Although Lily Tomlin delivers brilliant acting with excellent character development, there's nothing else to this film. It's rather boring, over all with not much to the story line, there's minimal plot, at best. What's really disappointing is that IMDb listed this ad a comedy first. I'm not sure why it's listed as a comedy at all, it's in no way humorous.

edwagreen Where was the Oscar nomination for Lily Tomlin as best actress here. Wow, was she ever passed up for this.This no-nonsense academic grandmother who is way ahead of her time gave Tomlin the opportunity to present one of her best performances ever. Ascerbic, to the point, but the hip lesbian grandmother pulled no punches here.The film is devoted to Tomlin trying to pay for an abortion for her granddaughter. It depicts their various adventures in this pursuit and culminates in one scene where Tomlin beats up the father of the child.Grieving the loss of her partner Violet and ending of a relationship with a much younger girl will only complicate matters but Tomlin's character has the mettle to carry on.

tsestan Hard to finish the movie when you hate the main character. Don't get me wrong. I think Lily Tomlin is a great actress and would like to see her in much more movies but awful sentences can make even excellent actor sound unnatural and amateurish. Add to those awful sentences bunch of overused indie movie clichés (like transsexual hairdresser, cool lesbian grandmother etc.) and fair dose of unmotivated screaming (guess for creating comical moments when there is none) you get recipe for disaster. I behaved like a hipster few years ago and had way to much compassion for all sort of indie or European hyped movies and tried to "understand" them or blame myself for not liking them (I thought I missed some greatness or am not educated enough) but no more. I don't like this movie. Sorry
