Misconceived, badly acted and sloppily directed.

The result is a curiously indigestible phenomenon, like being forced to eat five courses of avocado by an overbearing dinner-party host.

Mr. Newman, who also co-wrote the script, has staged some effective comic scenes in an effort to temper the film's overpowering get-out-your-hand-kerchief conclusion.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 1, 2021

Some fine actors, such as Joanne Woodward and Ellen Barkin, are abused by the script. Others, notably Benson, hang themselves.

Harry & Son is a male version of Terms of Endearment without the previous film's laughs, poignancy, or sidelong coherence.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 1, 2021

The film seems to begin in the middle of something, just exactly what I'm not sure, and ends without ever having said anything.

Too bad "Harry & Son" is just a hard-hat soap opera. On the other hand, you can't go far wrong with performers like Paul Newman, Robby Benson, Ellen Barkin, and Joanne Woodward.

At best, this material is standard, safe, pseudo-heartwarming 온라인카지노추천 fare. As a feature film it is a crime.

Since there is no real dramatic conflict between the two main characters, the movie just moseys along. It does contain some amusing moments.

One of the few films Paul Newman directed and the only one he co-wrote, Harry & Son wanders around a fractured relationship before finding a few moments of purity

It is a film that reunites some superb moments, and all of them come from the excellent acting work, of an incredible naturalness guided by Newman's direction. [Full Review in Spanish]

The film is definitely overlong, bordering on the dull.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 17, 2008

Fuzzily conceived and indecisively executed, Harry & Son represents a deeply disappointing return to the director's chair for Paul Newman.
