Nonnas

This is not your average generated content by netflix, this is a real film with emotions.

An Incredible cast doing their best in a beautiful film with inspiring true story ,heartwarming soundtrack ,it everything you want in a romantic comedy and more it's simply perfect for what it's. Yeah there are many similar films was made in the early 2000s but we don't get many movies like this anymore especially if it is done well.it needed more details but every character had enough background and more importantly charm to make you care and the cast is well put together I'm sure fans of the sopranos will be happy.

Just when I thought there was nothing that I could watch with my family made after 1990 this gem comes along.

No nudity, no sex, no "message", no politics, just a great story, well written, well paced and delivered by fine actors who it shines through loved making it. And you can tell and can feel that the laughter was created and not directed by an ensemble that bounced off each other naturally.

Since Vince Vaughn has started following his true north again he seems happier and he is a joy to watch. Who cares if any moment I expect him to say "who's the big winner Mikey?" It's him and he is marvelous.

If you haven't seen "Bad Monkey" then he is himself there too and he again brings joy, wit, pathos and perfect comedic timing. Thank you Vince because you are the big winner.

Nonna is more than just a film-it's an experience that wraps around you like a warm hug from your own grandmother. From the very first scene, it feels like home. The movie beautifully captures the essence of unconditional love, nostalgia, and cultural pride. It gently reconnects you with your inner child and stirs deep emotions tied to your roots and upbringing. Watching it brings not just tears, but good tears-the kind that cleanse and comfort you at once. So, keep a box of Kleenex close; you'll need it. The storytelling is light and airy, yet profound, with life lessons woven seamlessly into every moment. It's a gentle reminder of what really matters in life-family, heritage, and the simple joys of love and connection. Nonna isn't just a film you watch; it's one you feel. Everything about it feels right. It leaves your spirit lifted and your heart full.

No sex and no dirty language, and guess what, no movie ever needs that. These feel-good movies are what we need more of.

Who doesn't love their nonna? It's an underdog movie. It has some humor. But it was the end that brought a feel-good tear to my eye. You couldn't help but want the restaurant to succeed for no other reason than Joe and the nonnas.

Where most cultures have the den as the place to hang out with company, but in cultures like Italian, French, and Greek, it's the kitchen. Kitchens are happy places in those cultures. They truly cook not out of necessity but love and enjoyment.

This one's worth watching.

I often watch a movie these days and up thinking "I wish I had those two hours back. What a waste."

This movie was just the opposite. Two hours very well spent. It has a great story that made me laugh and cry.

It has a fantastic cast. Every single one of the actors in this is stellar.

It has great music.

And it has food. Oh my goodness the food. Served family style - there are huge bowls of streaming pasta and pans of lasagne. Plates of cannoli.

The food looks so good that it made me feel faint.

Even writing this, my stomach is rumbling.

I'm not Italian but I am fond of Italian-leaning movies like Moonstruck, and I totally love the Inspector Montalbano detective series (it takes place in Sicily and is very food-forward).

I didn't know about the "sauce versus gravy" question. Hmmm.

So this movie is about love and family and grief and hope and friendship and perseverance. It is easy on the eyes - not overly directed or overwhelmingly produced. It's about growing old and staying young. And it's about food.

I recommend it. 9 stars but it probably could be 10. It's not like "Best Picture" quality but it is sweet and has heart. I have nothing bad to say about it.
