 1/4 |
In his career-debasement race against Al Pacino, must Robert De Niro inflict a moribund genre botch like Everybody's Fine on the public just in time to grinch us up for Christmas? Full Review |

 3.5/5 |
Americanized remakes of foreign hits often miss what made those properties work in the first place, but Jones, DeNiro and company know less is more in this instance and deliver a work that’s very fine indeed. Full Review |

B- |
Based on Giuseppe Tornatore's 1990 film "Stanno tutti bene," writer/director Kirk Jones fulfills the material's dramatic demands without putting too fine a point on Frank's emotional awakening. But it's De Niro's naturalistic performance that captures you Full Review |

The ironically titled Everybody's Fine, a remake of the whimsical Italian weepie, boasts tenderly crafted geriatric redemption, along with seasoned actor De Niro likewise maturing down a more quietly contemplative and introspective path. Full Review |

2.0/5 |
Everybody's Fine is a nice picture about a dysfunctional family which keeps secrets. It should appeal to nice, dysfunctional, secretive people in the audience -- which probably is the majority. Full Review |

C |
Under the helm and pen of Kirk Jones what was a sensitive and touching dramedy in Tornatore's 1990 film has become conventional, predictable and schmaltzy, forcing the actors, especially the estimable De Niro, to emote in a big way. Full Review |
||
|
|
The film’s finale is so generically feel-good that it’s hard to feel much of anything watching it. Full Review |

|
|
The film is rigorously streamlined to deliver a good emotional uppercut by the end, and purely on the strength of its craft, it connects. Full Review |
