"4⭐️ NONNA’S takes food as love to the next level. So rich it’s aromatic, soaked in Italian warmth, ambience and its own magical secret sauce. This gentle movie is as heartwarming and sentimental as it gets, a balm for the soul and broken hearts. And.. a true story! Honestly I don’t care how much is actual fact, just knowing this place is out there existing somewhere in the cold world is enough to wrap my heart in a fleece lined snuggie.
Probably some will think this movie is sappy but the emotions feel sincere and genuine, not forced.
Hats off to the legendary nonnas who bring the essence, vivacity and nostalgia, and the rest of the wonderful cast too!
Watch this with your own nonnas, aunties, mothers and anyone else you love and nurture. "
"WARNING ⚠️ DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE ON AN EMPTY STOMACH!!! Soooo much amazing looking food!!!
This movie may not be for everyone, but I loved it!!! This one hit close to home for me. I was able to find little things from the Nonnas that reminded me of my own family. I'm from an Italian American background and even though we didn't call my grandmas "Nonna", you could definitely taste the love in their cooking and see the joy it brought them to feed us. So that alone warmed my heart.
The movie has a good pace to it with an amazing cast. Vince Vaughn, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, Susan Sarandon, Brenda Vaccaro, Linda Cardellini, Joe Manganiello, and Drea de Matteo just to name a few. I loved the bickering between the Nonnas and then, ultimately, the sense of family unity between them. And it's all based on the true story of a restaurant that is still around in Staten Island, NY... It don't get better than that. Great movie. 9/10"
"Overall entertaining, but still felt just good, not really great. I think for me, it started really high and didnt keep up with the momentum as in I cried within the first minutes and never again had a response that was even close to as strong after being given this expectation that this movie would be sentimental. In terms of the picture, a few times the screen was really dark and I could not tell what was happening - this was not the TVs fault either, I tested different movies/apps/settings, it was just this one. Fine for a family movie night, 6/10🐑🍝"
"A Beautiful true story. "
