Uncle Nino Audience Reviews

Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Steineded How sad is this?
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
develder5 Uncle Nino was great! We took our whole family and it was a joy to watch. As a second generation American of Italian descent myself, I was so drawn to Uncle Nino's character. He is my grandfather! The garden in the front yard! Music! Home-made Wine! Tradition! And family values! What a great family movie! Too many American families have lost site of traditional family values. This is a great movie for someone who has lost site of what is important. It's not the job, or the money it's all about the time with family. Too often we make our lives too busy to stop and just simply enjoy each other. This is a great movie to remind you of what you may be missing! Bravisimo!!! We need more movies like this!
n-francis This is a very sweet movie with a wonderful message about getting your priorities straight. The Uncle Nino character was very well conceived and implemented. All three teen age characters are great. I especially enjoyed Duke Doyle as the "Bones" character. Anne Archer and Joe Mantagne are well cast. It was fun to see the father figure out that it was he that needed the attitude adjustment. The Italy scenes are beautiful and authentic as are the scenes from Glenview, Illinois. I had many laugh out loud moments as well as a couple teary moments. Uncle Nino helps the father character get back to his joy of gardening and I connected with this part of the movie. After I saw the show, I planted sunflower seeds and hope to plant them along my backyard fence. This is definitely a movie that I felt good when I left and I think you will too!
kiirk79 I had the great opportunity to see this film with the friends and family of Duke Doyle last night. I really enjoyed viewing this film. It was so refreshing to see a film address the values of forgiveness and compromise in the modern American family. The film uses the universal language of music in brilliant fashion to bridge the gap between both culture and different generations. Joe Mantegna and Anne Archer are wonderful together as the heads of the Micelli family and Pierrino Mascarino will make you wish you had an "Uncle Nino".It was great seeing both Trevor and Daniel in person at our showing. Continued success to this group of talented young actors! Let's hope more of America gets to see "Uncle Nino"! BRAVO!
skebon Millions of Americans have been saying we need a film like this. You've all heard them: your neighbors, fellow workers, relatives..... and here it is. What a refreshing, wonderful film for all to see. A movie that doesn't have to resort to foul language, inappropriate scenes, baseless scripting and all the other unwelcome intrusions into our lives. And the message it gives is timeless, but especially pertinent in these times. Family values, love, caring, acceptance, what's REALLY important in life. I've heard comments from people that have seen it and they all said it was good. From children to adults, everyone wanted to meet "Uncle Nino" after the performance and take a little part of him home with them. People left the movie with a warm, cozy feeling and a smile on their face. I'll see this movie again and I hope to see more movies like it. Thanks, Uncle Nino ! !
