Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Andy Garcia demonstrates real comic chops in this charming comedy of family dysfunction.
– Frank Scheck,
Hollywood Reporter,
6 Jul 2010
fresh:
This is the kind of movie that could easily sink into comedy hijinks as broad and flat as pappardelle. But it doesn't. De Felitta... makes no apologies for the outrageousness of the coincidences and gloriously knotty relationships and secrets.
– Jonathan F. Richards,
Film.com,
29 Apr 2010
rotten:
Writer-director Raymond De Felitta has cut together a frustrating comedy, with the misunderstandings piling up like kindling for a bonfire that his movie never lights.
– Roger Moore,
Orlando Sentinel,
28 Apr 2010
fresh:
The slice-of-life comedy City Island is a charming throwback filled with authentic characters.
– Joe Williams,
St. Louis Post-Dispatch,

fresh:
A funny, heartfelt look at families, relationships and the lies that prop them up as much as tear them down.
